Hi guys,

I would appreciate a help with this question.

The Windows application I am working on needs to read Firefox cookies. The 
application is a desktop app, that has access to the user files.

Up until the Firefox version 2.0 our application was parsing the cookies.txt 
to read the cookies. We however realized that this might change one day. 
Which did with Firefox 3 - cookies.sqlite is the new cookie file.

I am wondering if there is a way to access Firefox cookies without having to 
deal with cookie file directly. Is there any XPCOM/Gecko-runtime-based 
solution to this?

The idea is to change the application once and forever to be able to access 
Firefox cookies in a Firefox-version-independent way.

I will resort to the Sqlite database reader if there are no option, but if 
anyone knows a universal cookie access mechanism, please let me know.


Thanks in advance!
Karen Gabrielyan
