Obviously that, being my banking, Being your banking - bingo!! Login retention time (in cookies) has been set by your bank. Probably to one month, as you discovered. Ask them. This (probably) has nothing to do with Firefox. Just to be sure, that your Firefox doesn't not interfere with banking cookies, go to Firefox settings, Privacy & Security tab, and check what Browser Policy you are using. "Standard" is pretty much normal, but if you are using "Strict" this may interfere with some cookies. has > never been written down.

Sorry but I don't understand your connection between logged in pages (in cookies) and bookmarks. Are you saying now, that you lost bookmarks list in your Firefox profile? Or that you have been logged out of some pages? If that's the bookmarks saved in your Firefox profile, what steps have you taken to save/preserve/restore your profile? =2D- With kindest regards, Piotr. =E2=A2=80=E2=A3=B4=E2=A0=BE=E2=A0=BB=E2=A2=B6=E2=A3=A6=E2=A0=80 =E2=A3=BE=E2=A0=81=E2=A2=A0=E2=A0=92=E2=A0=80=E2=A3=BF=E2=A1=81 Debian - T= he universal operating system =E2=A2=BF=E2=A1=84=E2=A0=98=E2=A0=B7=E2=A0=9A=E2=A0=8B=E2=A0=80 https://ww= w.debian.org/ =E2=A0=88=E2=A0=B3=E2=A3=84=E2=A0=80=E2=A0=80=E2=A0=80=E2=A0=80
