I've been using FF 1.5.0.4 for so long that even Youtube was screaming at me to upgrade. Finally moved to 3.6.6 last month. (New PC, new install, new everything.) In 1.5, if I deleted a cookie, it was automatically added to my blocked cookies list. If that can be done in 3.6, I can't figure out how. Help, please!

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Network.cookie.blockFutureCookies

To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.

That dood it! Thank you. Seems needlessly complicated, but I guess they can't put everything in the GUI...
