I had a problem with Firefox 3 on Vista not saving session cookies. The problems were:
- Freezing when opening iGoogle, Gmail, Facebook, bbc.co.uk
- Reseting iGoogle and bbc.co.uk to their default settings after browser restart
To fix it you need to remove the cookies.sqlite file from the user profile.
- Close Firefox
- Open Windows Explorer – on the top left select Organize / Folder and Search Options / View / Show Hidden Files and Folders
- Navigate to C:\Users\”USERNAME”\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profile\”SESSION FOLDER” (this is a random alphanumeric name)
- Delete the file cookies.sqlite
- Start Firefox and it should work fine
