Recreate this on Firefox 26.0

Log into Gmail. Log out Clear all cookies on browser Type: www.gmail.com. It still shows my logged out gmail profile, with my email id and profile picture.


Why is Gmail still able to retrieve the cookies if I have already deleted them?

Hello,

The gmail page is bookmarked?

If yes, try delete the gmail bookmark, then clear all the recent history, then try access again:


If not, try go to Tools >> Options >> Privacy >> Firefox will change to Use custom settings for history , click on Show Cookies and the next window delete the google cookies, then restart Firefox
