Firefox 3.0a8 doesn't delete all cookies on exit

[Thomas Boje]

Binary package hint: firefox-3.0

I've put the server in question (not accessible via internet) as "allow" in the cookie exception list and set Firefox to delete cookies on exit. Previously ALL my cookies were deleted on exit, now its cookies "survived" the weekend. I've restarted the browser a few times and this server's cookies are reliably remembered. Cookies of another server set to "allow" are deleted as intended.

Summary:
[ ] Accept cookies from sites
   (Keep until: I close Gran Paradiso) (greyed out)
  -> Exceptions:
      (server) Allow

[x] Always clear my private data when I close Gran Paradiso
  -> [x] Cookies

Nice. I just wanted to point out, that I'm using gutsy (7.10), so I'd like to see the update there as well. Thanks for your effort.

We need it on Ubuntu stable

Update: we will directly go for beta2 in gutsy.
