recently i noticed that firefox was the only browser that was able to loginto a website that sets session cookie which expires in 30 min.

problem i had was i couldnt loginto the same website with the other major browsers becasue my system time was 1 hour incorrect meaning my session is alredy expired when i tried to go into the page.

the problem resolved with my correcting my system time but leave me with one question.

how is firefox able to adjust its own time? even when my system time is incorrect?

Firefox uses the time set in the operating system. Firefox doesn't change the offset from UTC to make it any different than what is set in the operating system.

AFAIK, the only thing different between web browsers would be the cookies that are saved in each browser and the manner in which an individual browser handles cookies.
