55Jay Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Holy Crap! This is not FF specific, but have you ever set FF to only accept cookies you visit and before any 3rd party cookie can be added, you have to approve? Try it, it's great fun and educational. I did it today and it's a very interesting to see from a clean slate, where all your cookies come from. Gmail and Google in general seem to be the biggest cookie machines Upwards of 20 just to get to my gmail and then it didn't like that I was approving each cookie step by step and just shut me down completely. I had to shut down FF, reset cookies to the most liberal setting, then go again from step 1. It's not evil but it is interesting. I use an "AutoHotkey" Macro to delete my Google, Youtube, Yahoo and Facebook cookies from Firefox: GoogleYoutubeYahooFBCookieKillerV2.txt Yeah, well you can do that from within FF. No need to add some other crap add on / extension. Enough of those as it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
