Is there any way to stop my Firefox from clearing my cookies every time i close my browser?
You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

It should be something like this:
Also, check Preferences>Security>Passwords> "Remember passwords for sites":

M$Closing the browser is not deleting your cookies. Your cookies are saved. Rather, it is your session that expires when you close your browser. Your cookies will always be there until they expire. They're what your browser sends to the web site to tell it which language to display it in and what your preferences are for that site, for example.
So, when you log into a site like Consumer Reports, for example, you can close and re-open tabs as many times as you want and you'll always stay logged in because you haven't closed your browser. Once you close your browser completely, your session has ended, and you must start a new session upon opening a new instance of Firefox.

While that may be (partially) true, this is not the default behavior of Firefox. The default behavior is to ask before clearing private data, and the box that deletes everything upon close is unchecked by default. Furthermore, if you were to enable the "Always clear my private data when closing firefox" you still have the option to be asked to clear it.
So, the net result is that lesliec would have had to reverse the default settings of both of these checkboxes in order for Firefox to clear her private data each time the browser closes without asking her.
Not necessarily true. There is an option in Firefox to delete EVERYTHING (cache, passwords, cookies, history, download history) every time you close Firefox with no confirmation.
