To add some more information:<br>
<br>
Vidalia + NoScript does not present any cookie issues. I can
access Account Settings. The problem is when TorButton is used.
<br>
<br>
I then used TorButton's preferences to remove all the protections
by unticking as much as possible (effectively making TorButton
worthless). I still get the same error! <br>
<br>
I rebooted and cleaned the cache and cookies and still I cannot
access the Account Settings aspect of Gmail. It is as if
TorButton per se is the issue irrespective of any security
settings it uses. <br>
<br>
In my Firefox cookie section I have cookies for mail.google.com
that read: GX, GXSP, gmailchat, TZ, GMAIL_AT, and S. <br>
<br>
Yet Gmail still claims that cookies are not installed. <br>
<br>
I did an <a moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="about:cache">about:cache</a> and then searched for
torbutton. There were about 100 entries which include:<br>
<br>
extensions.torbutton.regen_google_cookies;false<br>
extensions.torbutton.reset_google_cookies;false<br>
extensions.torbutton.xfer_google_cookies;true<br>
<br>
I did change regen_google cookies to true but this did not change
anything. Perhaps one needs to change certain entries in <a
moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="about:config">about:config</a> to affect TorButton's
interactions with Gmail?<br>
<br>
Any ideas from TorButton developers? Thanks. <br>
