   Hi all,

Those of you who may have switched to using the recently released Firefox 1.0 as your browser may also have encountered a problem with the Shop at Home website that it doesn’t allow you to switch destination countries, saying you must have cookies enabled, even if you do have them enabled.

It seems that to create the cookie, it expects a browser other than Firefox, but once the cookie is created everything works fine. So to fix the problem all you have to do is tell Firefox to masquerade as Internet Explorer, create the cookie, then switch it back. This can be done as follows:

Install the “User Agent Switcher” extension
  1. Choose “Tools / Extensions” from the menu
  2. Click “Get more extensions”
  3. On the extensions page, choose the “Configuration” category

It appears to now be under “Developer Tools” for whatever reason... Hopet that helps
