This information is missing on my privacy tab. I have some annoying cookies that keep coming back. Why don't I have this option? Do I need to upgrade my browser? Help!

Hello Reparata, to be able to see the "accept third-party cookies" you have to set in History (in privacy tab) > Firefox will: Use custom settings for history.

You can consider to use the "From visited" setting for third-party cookies in case of problems with blocked cookies.

  • Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"

You can set network.cookie.thirdparty.sessionOnly to true on the about:config page to make third-party cookies behave as session cookies that expire when Firefox is closed.
