can Firefox be set-up to keep cookies from selected sites while normally deleting cookies when exiting Firefox
I'm new to Firefox and I've been using Opera. I've been able(in Opera) to retain cookies from sites I use often (bank, etc.) while having as a default clearing cookies when exiting , but only the cookies that were set during that session. Can the cookies settings in Firefox be configured to allow this.

The default Firefox installation doesn't have a feature like that, but there are some extensions that add that feature to Firefox.

You can let all cookies expire if you close Firefox and make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"
- Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
Make sure that you do not use Delete browsing, search and download history on Firefox to clear the "Cookies" and the "Site Preferences" (Site Preferences includes the cookie exceptions)
