How to enable cookies in Mozilla's Firefox

Mozilla Firefox stores your data with cookies, but you can surf faster on websites you have already visited and have details such as your username and password entered automatically. In some online shops, cookies must even be activated for shopping. Here's how it works:

• In Mozilla Firefox, open the "Settings" via the menu field.
• Under "Privacy" you have to go to the "Chronicle" section and click on "Create according to user-defined settings".
• Now another small menu opens, in which you have to click "Activate cookies" and "Keep until they are no longer valid" (see picture).
• You can also use the "Exceptions" button to define websites that may never set cookies.
