Undo "Remember my choice" selection

katrakol75

How can I undo a "Remember my choice" selection?

When accessing a site I was presented with the message:

"A script from "International Business Machines Corporation" is requesting enhanced abilities that are UNSAFE and could be used to compromise your machine or data: Run or install software on your machinem, Read private data from any site or window, Read and upload local files.

Allow these abilities only if you trust this source to be free of viruses or malicious programs.

I said NO and also checked the check box Remember my choice. Now I realize that I actually need to allow this but I don't get the option anymore (since I checked the Remember my choice check box).

How can I undo this selection so that I can allow the script to run.

You can check on the about:config page to see if you can find a capability.principal.codebase.p* pref with the name of that website.
If you find such a pref the remove that specific p* (p0 or p1) section via the right-click context menu and Reset.

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.

I do not have a capability.principal.codebase.p* pref in the about:config. Any other suggestions?

I forgot that the capability prefs won't show on the about:config page (*).
You can check the file prefs.js in the Firefox Profile Folder for those lines.
