Thanks cor-el but I was unable to follow your instructions. Things were not where you indicated. I have a MAC. Could this be the problem? If so, how do I fix the cookie and cache problem on the MAC?
Sorry, I had missed that you are on a Mac.

If clearing the cookies doesn't help then it is possible that the file cookies.sqlite that stores the cookies is corrupted. Rename (or delete) cookies.sqlite (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete cookies.sqlite-journal and cookies.txt, if they exist, in the Firefox Profile Folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
