# Firefox login/cookie problems

 * I’m having problems involving possibly cookies & login. Often, but not always,
   when I open a new Firefox browser session (I’m using Session Mgr. so I’m essentially
   reopening tabs fr. the previous session), instead of opening the page from my
   blog the tab takes me to a login pg.
 * When I go into the Firefox cookie cache I see the following cookies:
 * wordpress.org utmc
    wordpress. org utmz wordpress.org utma
 * But when I go to the WordPress.com cache I see a cookie called WordPress Logged
   In. Shouldn’t I see a cookie like that in WP.org as well? I also notice that 
   after logging in I still see the same 3 cookies listed above.
 * I don’t know whether the problem here is Firefox not generating the proper cookie
   or whether there’s a conflict generated by WP. If anyone has any ideas or has
   seen similar behavior pls. let me know.

 * those are cookies from **this domain**.
 * Those cookies have absolutely nothing to do with wordpress.**com** Different 
   domain.

 * No, because you are confusing what cookies are doing, and you are confusing domains.
 * Unless something doesnt work, assume the best, and dont worry about what you 
   see in your cookies.

 * I understand that they’re diff. domains. But the cookies for wordpress.org are
   NOT WORKING. So something IS wrong. I’m just trying to figure out what it is.
 * Since WordPress.com & WordPress.org have a lot of commonalities I was asking 
   someone who knows both systems if they could tell me whether the wordpress.org
   cookies should reflect what I see in wordpress.com.

 * __qca
    __qcb __utma __utmb __utmc __utmz wordpress_logged_in <– that contains
   my wordpress.com username.. thats obviously a very specific cookie wp_test TESTCOOKIE
