Cookie Mgmt

I use IE mostly when booted to Windows but I use Firefox when booted to Linux. In FF there is an area for cookie exceptions, i.e. I can add domains & select to alow or disallow the domain from setting cookies. My question is this:

Is there a quick method of importing a list of undesirable domains or a quick method of blocking them rather than individually entering the domains 1x1? I have a txt file of domains that I culled from the IE restricted sites reg key.

 

Yes, I realize that. I have spyware blaster on my windows pcs & use it w/ IE. Reason I asked is cause I use Firefox on my linux laptop and was looking for a quick way to get the spyware blaster list into firefox without having to add exceptions 1x1.

So, FF must save these somewhere in a config file, even on windows versions. What's the config file that FF uses to store the disallowed cookie domains?

edit:

Found it. In linux FF uses a file called hostperm.1 which is a list of who can & cannot set cookies, in this format:

# Permission File
# This is a generated file! Do not edit.

host cookie 2 doubleclick.net
host cookie 2 doubleclick.com
host cookie 1 mybanklogin.com

...where 1 = allowed and 2 = blocked.

 

Thanks.
I managed to use find+replace in a txt editor to convert my IE restricted Sites reg key into a FF hostperm.1. Works liken a charm and no delays in running FF either. It does take a bit longer now to view the cookie exceptions in FF, but I would expect that w/ over 3600 domains in the list!

 

1.regedit > HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Windows/Current Version/Internet Settings/Zone Map/Domains
2. rt click the Domains folder & select "export" & save as "restricted.reg ".
3. rt click the .reg file & select "Edit" & will open it in Notepad.
4. Notepad: Edit menu/select all.
5. Notepad: Edit menu/copy.
6. paste into a NEW empty Notepad window & save as restricted.txt.

note: there are multiple methods of making the txt file. But DO NOT export from rfegedit as a txt file because the file will contain binary data that will prevent it from opening in all txt editors.

7. use find & replace to achieve the format below:
(note, that is NOT a space between words but a tab & your text editor MUST be able to insert tabs using find & replace. My editor uses standard symbol for tab which is this: \t

host cookie 2 doubleclick.net
host cookie 2 doubleclick.com
host cookie 1 mybanklogin.com

rename the txt file to hostperm.1

Here's my hostperm.1 file which can be downloaded presently but will be unavailable in a week:
