If I want to disable cookies I have to do it each time I start a new session of Firefox. Before this last update I did it once and forgot about it.It seem like the default setting is to accept all cookies and if you don't then you have to remember to change your setting each time you open Firefox

Start Firefox in Use Troubleshoot Mode in Firefox to check if one of your add-ons is causing your problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes). See Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems and Troubleshoot issues with plugins like Flash or Java to fix common Firefox problems
