Hello,

so an additional comment for Firefox >4 might be helpful IMHO.

but in this case, the browser version is specified. While it is not true for last versions of Mozilla browser, it is still valid for that old version.

Hello,

http://bugs.debian.org/564656

--8<--
The manpage states:

Mozilla and Netscape 6.x. Mozilla's cookie file is also named `cookies.txt', located somewhere under
`~/.mozilla', in the directory of your profile. The full path usually ends up looking somewhat like
`~/.mozilla/default/SOME-WEIRD-STRING/cookies.txt'.

This is no longer current; Moz now stores its cookies in cookies.sqlite.
--8<--

.mozilla/firefox/SOME-RANDOM-STRING.default/cookies.sqlite is the file with firefox.
