OK Hazelnut, they're here:

Just to hopefully eliminate something else, it doesn't appear that the cookies are in any way extraordinary hangers on, as CCleaner picked up the small selection of sites I visited from Jerry's list, and deleted them with no problem.
This is in Windows, but cookies are cookies, and we assume the devs know where to target for cookies on a Mac.
Do you have the cookies boxes checked for all browsers CCleaner lists, even if you're not using them?
Dennis,
Where is the list? It says "Safari" in the window. Everything beneath it is checked, but no list of browsers.

You need to send more screen shots.
So far you have only clicked on the left column bottom button OPTIONS and shown us cookies.
Now use the left column TOP button CLEANER and show us what you have.
I have two Tabs, one called Windows and the other called Applications, and they both have lots of check-boxes of extreme relevance
I doubt you have a Windows Tab, but whatever Tabs you have, the relevant browsers and check boxes etc should be there.
We can point them out if you give screenshots.
Go to the Applications button
and you will see
Be sure you've actually quit Firefox and haven't just closed the running windows of the browser (check finder or whatever Apple is calling it now)
*a staff thread has been started regarding the fact that these official ScreenCaps are not the most current version of CCleaner MAC
The extra info is just trying to eliminate every possibility, although it would be useful if one of the guys running a Mac can confirm that CCleaner actually is removing cookies, because there's a distinct lack of other posts in the Mac section regarding cookies.
Maybe even have a quick wander onto the following sites, where I picked up, and subsequently deleted, some of Jerry's cookies ...
"1000awesomethings.com"
"247RealMedia.com"
"1and1.com"
Here's 3 pix. Let me know if you need the fourth one.

Go to the Applications button
That looks right, like I said
Be sure you've actually quit Firefox and haven't just closed the running windows of the browser (check finder or whatever Apple is calling it now)
also it says in the report cleaning cancled, I assume that is only in the example shots and that you aren't seeing that everytime (or canceling evertime)
It won't do anything until the browser is CLOSED.
It probably says cleaning canceled because I forgot to close the browser that time.
Are we out of ideas? Did I not download the latest version for Mac?
Jer
I am going to repeat
Adobe Flash Trash
Apologies to Dennis that I never noticed his suggestion until his reply in post #16.
Aplogies if I missed it, BUT I have not noticed a response to this from jryberg.
Firefox under Windows suffers from Flash cookies AND NEVER SHOWS THEM AS SUCH - they are listed in the MultiMedia secrion of Applications,
which is much further down below the browsers.
Multimedia section of Applications?
Much further down in the browsers?
I don't know what you mean. What if I just deleted all cookies?
What if I just deleted all cookies, even the ones I want to keep?
How bad would that be?
Jer
Are you able to run and remove those cookies in Mac safe mode?
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
(Dennis I cannot open any of your postimage.org screenshoots as my computer blocks that site)
That's strange, I wonder why?
Here they are ...
Dennis, Hazelnut, Everyone,
I finally just clicked through the cookies (it was tedious) and deleted maybe 150 or more.
So thanks for trying. It still could have been something here that would have been obvious to you, but not to me.
Jerry
I had a similar experience until I thought about the situation as being similar to a page that needs to be refreshed or reloaded in order to see the changes. The next time I cleaned, instead of going straight to Options, I closed CCleaner, reopened it, and then selected Options. All of the cookies that had been listed under "Cookies to Delete" were no longer listed.
I hope this works for you.
Hi vernonriver.
Thanks for posting that info.
Welcome to Piriform by the way.
