ccleaner removes firefox 3.5 security setting (blocked cookies)

CCleaner for Windows
1

I use spybot s&d and spywareblaster to block cookies from some sites. Ccleaner removes these blocked sites from the firefox config (tools/options/privacy/accept cookies from sites/exceptions).

Imho ccleaner should not touch security settings. Can this be fixed?

Sorry, I posted too quick, this seems to be a firefox bug: firefox 3.5 itself removes the blocked sites when you choose to "clear history when firefox closes" and tick "site preferences" in the settings...

I wouldn't necessarily call it a Firefox "bug" however it would've been nice if they had some mouse over help to explain things such as that new setting introduced in 3.5. Yet another reason it's a good practice to regularly backup the Firefox settings with FEBE.
