** Description changed: Binary package hint: firefox - Issue: Firefox will not close while there are cookie dialogue boxes up - (which come from changing the cookie settings to "ask me every time"). - Firefox also seems to slow down over prolonged use while this setting is - active. + To summarize - When third party cookies are set to 'ask me every time' + the following behavior can be observed. - Firefox Versions Confirmed: 3.6, 3.7a1 + 1. Multiple tabs on a window become inoperative, except the X to close the tab. + 2. Many websites do not connect. + 3. After trying to reach one of these sites, Firefox will not quit. Closing with the X removes FF from view, but it's still running. Ending the process firefox-bin in the Task Manager usually works. + 4. Bookmarks overwrite the current page, even if a new tab or window is open prior to opening the bookmark. - Steps to reproduce: - 1. Go to Edit -> Preferences -> Privacy -> Accept Cookies from Sites -> Accept Third-Party Cookies -> Keep Until: "Ask me Every Time" - 2. Open a website with third party cookies - 3. While a dialogue box is up, attempt to close Firefox + Enabling either of the other two cookie options - 'until they expire' or + 'until I close Firefox' does not exhibit the above problems. - What happens: Firefox will not close unless the process is terminated. + I created a new user with default options and was able to duplicate the + bug by enabling 'ask me every time'. - What should happen: Firefox should close, along with the dialogue boxes, - without issue. - + Firefox Version: 3.6 DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04
