Comment (by Wyom123):

 update:
 figured out (maybe common knowledge) that firefox does not show session
 cookies.
 it even denies (depending on choice/meaning of words) that a site has been
 visited prior today
 on ctrl+I / security  while http://www.whatarecookies.com/cookietest.asp
 tells differently on reload and also on closing tab and revisit in other
 tab. ( that site connects to other sites as well like facebook google and
 the like, which is less brilliant )
 ctrl + shift + del does not show any result for clearing on tbb version of
 firefox
 also re-enabling menu bar to access clearing cookies ( via tools clear
 recent history or something) did not result in a usefull option.
 I have to test yet that "new identity" is the way to go to clear memory
 cookies ??
