I agree - the default cookie manager leaves much to be desired. I've found a very useful extension called "CookieCuller" that handles them much better, allowing you to save or clear cookies with a single click. Plus, you can view the information contained in the cookie without having to do anything special. It's so simple, yet so powerful when used properly. I haven't had any more problems with FireFox and cookies after I started using it (back with FireFox 0.9.x) Check it out here: - http://mozdev.sweetooth.org/cookieculler/ HTH. It certainly did the trick for me. -- Peace. ~G On Fri, 19 Nov 2004 00:10:33 -0500, Micheal Espinola Jr <michealespinola () gmail com> wrote:Yep, something is awry with Firefox's cookie management. it pisses me off. I disconnect from a site (close the browser), but the next time I open FF, all my cookies are acting as if they are still live. The Maxthon add-on for IE does the same thing Its annoying as hell when you are testing web apps.

I reported it as a bug to gmail but im not sure if its a bug on their part it may be firefox not doing something right. If you open two gmail accounts in two different firebird/fox browsers the first account logged into after a refresh becomes the second acccount. Or if you send an e-mail with the second account, it may send as the first and refresh back as account1. So if you login with GmailAccount1 and then open another browser and log into GA2, go back to GA1 browser and hit refresh, GA1 will be in the mailbox of GA2. This obviously is not a security risk because the mailbox was already logged into, but I still thought it was a weird thing to do. It doesnt act that way with internet exploder though so it must be something with Firefox ... _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
