How do I disable cookies before visiting a particular web site and reinstate them after the visit?

I am using Firefox 6.0.2 on an Apple Mac running OS 10.5.8. I want to discover how the site I am visiting behaves when it is accessed by a stranger.

You could visit the site in Private Browsing mode .

The site will not have access to any cookies that were set outside of Private Browsing - it will be as if you are visiting for the first time. Any cookies the site makes will be lost when exiting Private Browsing.

Many thanks. Using Private Browsing seems to make me invisible to web sites (e.g.amazon.uk) which is just what I wanted.
