The status for the site in Mozilla 1.7 is "allowed for session" in Firefox the status is "Blocked". It may not be desirable to add a third status option but if that is the case, "Allowed" should be used, since cookies for that site are in fact allowed. It should be notes that the actual operation of allowing cookies and getting rid of them after a session is correct, it just isn't labeled correctly. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Set browser to ask for all cookies 2. Go to any web site that will request a cookie that is not already on your exception list. 3. Select "Use my choice for all cookies on this site." 4. Click on the "Allow for session" button 5. Navigate to the Exceptions list and look at the status Actual Results: Status for added site is "Blocked" Expected Results: Status should be either "Allowed for session" or "Allowed"
