i cleared my cookies on 10/08/10 and since then firefox won't store cookies for longer than a browser session. i have checked my settings and nothing has changed. the box for accept cookies is checked, as is the box for accept third party cookies. cookies are accepted until they expire. no changes have been made to add-ons or extensions. no changes have been made to my os. i disabled java quickstarter and console because firefox was hanging around in the background even after the browser was closed (and it was annoying and sucking up ram). i can't figure out why firefox is hating on the cookies all of a sudden. any help would be greatly appreciated.
