Yes, but that will clear ALL private data as you have them defined

By default, when you go to Clear Private Data, SeaMonkey will ask

On my system it does not. But that may be because I've unchecked the

Instead of the cookie manager available from the GUI use:

chrome://communicator/content/permissions/cookieViewer.xul

in the location bar.  It's the old-style manager and allows multiple
selections.


Ed, thanks for that link. Worked well, allowed me to get rid of many
expired cookies.

One wonders why expired cookies are not automatically deleted!! But
then, when I first went down the list, I also saw a couple of cookies
the should have been deleted at end of session for sites that I hadn't
been to for many sessions!!

Seems to me, in addition to the Remove Cookie and Remove All Cookies
buttons, a Remove All Expired Cookies button would be useful if they
are not being dropped automatically!


In the mac Version go to the Tools  Data Manager type in website you
want to Kill Cookies click on Cookies Tab, then hold down the Command
Key (⌘) and type A for select all. Then choose delete.


Phillip, I was looking to automagically remove all expired cookies for 
all websites, not just one website at a time.


If they've all expired, who needs any of them??

You don't need to use the cookie manager.
1. Go to Tools--Clear_Private_Data.
2. Uncheck everything except Cookies.

Strange that Daniel's menu doesn't have this. I see it in the mail/news

In 2.23 go to: Tools -- data Manager --tools--clear private data is
about
halfway down that second tools menu.


Sure. Or you can skip the middle two steps and just do Tools | Clear
Private Data, which is available in any browser window. I misspoke
earlier when I said I saw it in a mail/news window; it's not there, and
it's not available in a mail composition window, either.


O.K., so maybe Chris was meaning 1. Go to Tools--Clear_Private_Data.

Just like, in my reply, I meant no Tools--Clear_Private_Data showing

Hi Paul,

I tried blocking cookies,as per your above advice. I then tried a site,
and got an onscreen message that I must turn on the cookies in order to
log on to that site. After I unblocked the cookies, then I did indeed
gain automatic entry to that site.

 From my perspective, there must be cookies sitting on my hard drive
that do not appear in my cookie manager.

Again, I used to have a dozen or so new cookies on my manager each day,
and I selectively deleted some. Since updating to SM 2.23, my cookie
manager has had zero cookies listed. That is the mystery that I cannot
fathom.

Mort Linder


There used to be a free program called cookie muncher which used to 
allow cookies long enough to log on to page and then remove them but it 
seems non existent now. I am going to try and find an old hard drive and 
see if I can resurrect it.

OK, let's make absolutely sure they're really not there in Cookie 
Manager. If so, I'm out of ideas.


1) When you launch the Cookie Manager, there should be a narrow column 
on the left with three things at the top:

Cookies only
Search domains
Domain
Right? Confirm that it's wide enough and tall enough to see its contents?

2) If this is what you see, then below that there should be a list of 
domains that have set cookies. Right? Or is the list blank?


If the list is blank, CM thinks you have no stored cookies.

3) If the list is not blank, selecting any domain by clicking it should 
show its cookies in the wider pane on the right. Right? Confirm that 
it's wide enough and tall enough to see its contents?


Note also that domains can sometimes set things on the Preferences tab 
that don't show up on the Cookies tab. Typically these are things like 
browser zoom factor. You might rule that out by pulling down 
Preferences on the left instead of Cookies, but I really don't think 
that's your issue.

You hit the nail on the head. Each domain that I clicked on  gave a

I can systematically delete any unwanted cookies.  I am still perplexed

Because the newer implementation is far poorer than the old one. 
Horrible choice and unnecessary.  Good idea to move to an sqlite 
database for management but totally unnecessary to screw the user 
interface.  I cannot imagine anyone advocating that the new UI is better.

You are looking at this the wrong way.
The Cookie Manager behaves the same way as the Password Manager and
there was a big discussion here on the somewhat broken
functionality a
couple of months ago.  I can't remember which Seamonkey level first
changed things but I think it was the one immediately after the
level
which was skipped after that server crash.


I was assuming Mort knew how to look for cookies in the Data Manager.
Now we know for sure he does. Let's wait and see what he says.


Hi,

Perhaps I was not clear enough. After each session on line with the
previous SM version, when I opened the Cookie Manager(Data Manager)
there appeared a lengthy list of cookies that were acquired in that
session. I then typically deleted all of them.

Since I recently updated to the latest SM (2.23), the Cookie Manager
always comes out blank. No settings were changed. I cannot figure out
why I no longer see a cookies list any more. Are they no longer
acquired, or are they acquired and somehow hidden?

Thanks.

Mort Linder


I think the problem you're experiencing is the way the new Data Manager
works. In looking at it, there no longer seems to be any means of
seeing
session-related cookies. One can only look via domains, which is pretty
useless to see who gave you what during a session.


I have SM set to allow only session cookies, and I routinely see them in
the Cookie Manager. Unfortunately, you can't see all cookies in a common
pool, you can only see them one... domain... at... a... time. So the
only way to be sure you have no surviving cookies is to examine each of
the domains listed in the left-hand pane of the Cookie Manager. When you
delete all a domain's cookies, that domain vanishes from the list, and
when no domains are listed, that means no cookies are stored.

To Mort's question, it's hard to speculate what happened without knowing
your previous version. Cookie handling has changed over the years, and
if you upgraded from, say, Netscape 4.7, a lot has changed. ;-)

Still, my earlier question is valid: if you see nothing in the Cookie
Manager, what makes you think SM is storing cookies? For example, are
you able to login to sites that require cookies even though nothing
shows in the CM?

You might also examine your prefs under Edit | Preferences | Privacy 
Security | Cookies and make sure your settings are as you would like.



Thanks Trane and Paul for the new information. The mystery to me is why
cookies always appeared in the cookie manager and had to be manually
deleted by me, up to the previous SM version. Now with 2.23, suddenly no
more cookies appear in the cookie manager, with no other changes. Are
the cookies being acquired by my PC and not listed, or are they no
longer being acquired?


For example, are you able to login to sites that require cookies even

As a general rule, if a site requires you to log in with a username and

Occasionally such sites will put a session id in the URL, but most use 
cookies.


If you try to login and the site returns you to a blank login page, that

@Mort - you upgraded recently from an older level?  older in this case 
means a level several months old.


In order to look at your cookies you need to:
- Open the Cookie Manager (or Password Manager etc - it makes no 
difference).  It calls itself the Data Manager.

- Look for the Data Manager - left, near the top.
- Change the All data types button immediately below that text to 
Cookies only.


Thanks for asking the question - I only worked out how things now work

manager, so that I could delete the undesirable ones?


If the list is blank, what reason do you have to think they are
present?



You are looking at this the wrong way.
The Cookie Manager behaves the same way as the Password Manager and
there was a big discussion here on the somewhat broken
functionality a
couple of months ago.  I can't remember which Seamonkey level first
changed things but I think it was the one immediately after the level
which was skipped after that server crash.


I was assuming Mort knew how to look for cookies in the Data Manager.
Now we know for sure he does. Let's wait and see what he says.


Hi,

Perhaps I was not clear enough. After each session on line with the
previous SM version, when I opened the Cookie Manager(Data Manager)
there appeared a lengthy list of cookies that were acquired in that
session. I then typically deleted all of them.

Since I recently updated to the latest SM (2.23), the Cookie Manager
always comes out blank. No settings were changed. I cannot figure out
why I no longer see a cookies list any more. Are they no longer
acquired, or are they acquired and somehow hidden?

Thanks.

Mort Linder


I think the problem you're experiencing is the way the new Data Manager
works. In looking at it, there no longer seems to be any means of seeing
session-related cookies. One can only look via domains, which is pretty
useless to see who gave you what during a session.


I have SM set to allow only session cookies, and I routinely see them in
the Cookie Manager. Unfortunately, you can't see all cookies in a common
pool, you can only see them one... domain... at... a... time. So the
only way to be sure you have no surviving cookies is to examine each of
the domains listed in the left-hand pane of the Cookie Manager. When you
delete all a domain's cookies, that domain vanishes from the list, and
when no domains are listed, that means no cookies are stored.

To Mort's question, it's hard to speculate what happened without knowing
your previous version. Cookie handling has changed over the years, and
if you upgraded from, say, Netscape 4.7, a lot has changed. ;-)

Still, my earlier question is valid: if you see nothing in the Cookie
Manager, what makes you think SM is storing cookies? For example, are
you able to login to sites that require cookies even though nothing
shows in the CM?

You might also examine your prefs under Edit | Preferences | Privacy 
Security | Cookies and make sure your settings are as you would like.



Thanks Trane and Paul for the new information. The mystery to me is why
cookies always appeared in the cookie manager and had to be manually
deleted by me, up to the previous SM version. Now with 2.23, suddenly no
more cookies appear in the cookie manager, with no other changes. Are
the cookies being acquired by my PC and not listed, or are they no
longer being acquired?


For example, are you able to login to sites that require cookies even 
though nothing shows in the CM?

My reason for removing cookies was the extremely annoying continually

I removed all cookies with cc cleaner and the blinking hourglass has now
stopped (for a while).
I have set only from originator.

If you're bothered by ads, try the add-on AdBlock Plus, it takes care of

I have just found one of the culprits,
I have the tv program page open most of the time to refer to it every 
now and again and it is doing it.

That has fixed it,(adblock plus) the tv page has lost the hourglass.

Although when I installed it seamonkey tried to block install until I 
overrode it.

By default, when you go to Clear Private Data, SeaMonkey will ask you

On my system it does not. But that may be because I've unchecked the box

Hi,

I have a recent cookie problem, and will be grateful for any help. I'm 
running Windows XP SP3 Pro, and Windows 7 Pro. I have my setting to 
accept all cookies. Until a few weeks ago, when I clicked on the cookie 
manager, a list of on-board cookies appeared,and I could then delete as 
I wished. Now, the cookie manager list is blank. The only change that I 
made was to upgrade to SM 2.23.

Were they set before you changed your setting? I don't think changing 
the setting would remove existing cookies that don't qualify.


If you want to be sure all cookies expire at the end of your SeaMonkey 
session, go to Edit | Preferences | Privacy  Security | Private Data 
and set SM to clear cookies at the end of every session (along with 
whatever other private data you want cleared). Then even if a site sets 
a 99-year cookie, SeaMonkey will remove it at the end of your session.
