I recently had to change my cookie settings for work purposes and now I don't know what the setting was on before I changed it. I thought it was on Always Block, but with that on, I can no longer log in or out of my online accounts, so I guess that can't be it.

Mine is set to "Allow from Websites I Visit" I'm pretty sure I've never changed it and is the default.

Thanks. I guess that must be it. Just seems strange because what other websites would someone get cookies from other than websites they visit?

Some websites have embedded contend from other sites. Setting it to just what you visit allows the embedded stuff from places you've actually been before through and blocks from websites you haven't been to ever.
