Selectively remove cookies? [Solved]

Post by T J Tulley »

[Using LinuxMint8 with Windows-7 on a laptop with Pentium dual-core 2.2 GHz cpu, 4 GB RAM, 500GB hdd]

At present I become automatically logged in to an individual account in a website because my username and password for that account are remembered. I now need to be able to select a different account in the same website.
The site owner advises me to remove cookies: can I do this selectively for this site only? I don't want to lose all my presets.
I'm using Firefox 3.5.9.

Yours hopefully, -

Theo Tulley.
