Editing Firefox Globalstorage Data
Firefox allows web sites to store data in an area called "globalstorage", and in more recent versions of Firefox (3.5+) it's called LocalStorage. As of Firefox 3.5, it's very difficult to edit/delete that data. Fortunately, you can use an SQL editor to get to that data because it's stored in a standard SQLLite database. Here's how to do it in Ubuntu (the directions aren't that much different for other Operating Systems).
