[Bug 516154] Re: Firefox won't close while cookie dialogue boxes are up

[Christopher]

To summarize - When third party cookies are set to 'ask me every time'
the following behavior can be observed.

1. Multiple tabs on a window become inoperative, except the X to close the tab.
2. Many websites do not connect.
3. After trying to reach one of these sites, Firefox will not quit. Closing with the X removes FF from view, but it's still running. Ending the process firefox-bin in the Task Manager usually works.
4. Bookmarks overwrite the current page, even if a new tab or window is open prior to opening the bookmark.

Enabling either of the other two cookie options  - 'until they expire'
or 'until I close Firefox' does not exhibit the above problems.

I created a new user with default options and was able to duplicate the
bug by enabling 'ask me every time'.
