I've encountered 2 websites displaying 'cookies disabled' but firefox is still collecting them. I'm running McAfee, various plug-ins: adobe, shockwave, java etc. Extensions include PPC webspy, java console etc. I've just uninstalled ad-aware. Everything looks enabled in Tools>privacy. Help!

Hello Paul.

You may be having a problem with some extension or plugin that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?

Or it could be that you have Javascript disabled for some sites...
