The help files and privacy menu implies that i can "specify which websites are always or never allowed to use cookies". However the best i seem to get is when i check ""accept cookies from sites" and list exceptions one by one with "block" status. When I tried to do the converse , i. e. uncheck ""accept cookies from sites" and simply list the 12 or so sites that I want to have "allow" status, which is obviously much more efficient especially since we are blitzed with several dozen cookies after just a couple days of surfing. When I uncheck accept and list only my websites in the exceptions box with the same "address" listed in the cookie description e.g."yahoo,com" with "allow status , Firefox still blocks all cookies. Is there any way to simply allow only those cookies from websites that i give "allow" status ?
