Whenever I try to log in to my gmail account in Firefox, I always get this message:

Your browser's cookie functionality is turned off. Please turn it on.

In the Privacy tab of Preferences, the Accept Cookies box is checked. Is there some other setting that needs tweaking?

Firefox 2.0.0.6, OS X 10.4.10.

Do you have any Firefox add-ons installed?

The only things seem to be something called DOM Inspector and Talkback. I did have Stumbleupon, but I disabled it. I primarily use Safari, but there are a few sites that work better with FF.

How is your "keep until" set? Do you have any cookies that are saved for the domain you are trying to access?
