132316 - Turning off 'cookie support' in javascript doesn't work

Status: VERIFIED WORKSFORME

(Core :: Networking: Cookies, defect)

Description

[ned wolpert]

Using 0.9.9 (Linux 7.2, redhat) I went into preferences and turned off cookie
support (read, create and modify) in javascript, and turned on notify when new
cookies were being set.  I went to 'www.fuckedcompany.com' and then selected 
the image on the right-hand side to turn 'off' model pics.  The resulting page
has a javascript call that sets a new cookie.  Note that I use junkbusters, 
which blocks cookie requests in the HTTP header, so I know that nothing was
sent in the header.  (I turned on jarfile in junkbusters so any cookies being
sent are stored there, which I reviewed had none from www.fuckedcompany.com)

You need to restart to get the prefs in "Scripts & Windows" to take effect in
0.9.9...

REPORTER: Can you check if the problem persists with a more recent build, and if
it occurs after a restart as bz suggested. Please report back to this bug so
that we can keep a good track of problems. Thanks for helping with mozilla.
