Default Cookies and Firefox

I use Firefox and for some obscure reason I don't even remember, I have the browser cookie setting set on "allow cookies but ask me each time". When I am surfing in unknown or suspect territory, I just automatically deny the setting of cookies.

Well, I did this with a particular site and now I want to order something from the site and the ordering software does not work. Assuming that it may need to set cookies in order to work properly, I attempted to re-allow cookies from that site and could not find a way to do so.

Can somebody help? Thank you.

Default Re: Cookies and Firefox

This allows you to get rid of cookies you don't want, and to reset for future cookie encounters; but I see no way to reinstate cookies once refused.

I closed out the site and reloaded several times, and never again saw the little popup window saying "this site is trying to set a cookie--allow/deny/etc". Which brings me back to my original question--If once denied, is there any way to go back and change that denial to an acceptance? There must be, but it's very elusive.

Solution that works (courtesy of Neuge in computer help forum):

Tools > Options > Privacy > + Cookies > Exceptions > Remove applicable site from the list
