I'm trying to enable cookies in Firefox 4.0 to view websites, like Google Calendar. I have followed the directions of going to Tools > Options > Privacy > changing from Remember History to Custom.

I try the sites (including opening a new browser) and it doesn't work. So I go back to the menu (Tools > Options > Privacy) and it has changed itself back to Remember History. I can't get it to "stick" to Custom settings.

That is OK.

Firefox shows the "(Never) Remember history" choice if all the history and cookie setting are the default.
Make at least one change to the default setting if you want "Use custom settings for history" to stay selected.
Otherwise Firefox will revert to "(Never) Remember history" if you return to the Privacy tab.
The choice "Use custom settings for history" will stay selected as long as not all settings are the default to make you aware that you made changes.
