Some websites store cookies on your computer, so these sites can remember you. This can be very handy, but it can also be used to track everything you do on that website.

So which websites use cookies and what is stored in those cookies? With the Firefox View Cookies extension, you can find that out easily. You can also remove the cookies.

The View Cookies extension is compatible with the latest Firefox release.

You might think this functionality is already present in Firefox, under the Security tab. But this shows all cookies in which the domain matches. So when you visit mozilla.com, you might see cookies not only from mozilla.org, but also from addons.mozilla.org, developer.mozilla.org, download.mozilla.org, hacks.mozilla.org and onemozilla.org. It might show a lot of cookies which do not belong to the current web page. The View Cookies extension only show cookies belonging to the current web page.
