[domain] (e.g., abcdcompany.com)

and Allow cookies for the domain.

NB: One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may be disallow such changes from "sticking." These include
anti-spyware applications (e.g., Ad-aware's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea Timer,
SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, CounterSpy, WinPatrol, etc),
anti-virus applications & security suites (Norton, McAfee, ESET/NOD32,
Kasperky, Trend Micro, etc., but NOT AVG Free v8.5), and third-party
firewalls (e.g., Zone Alarm, etc.).

Note that temporarily disabling the application(s) or rebooting into Safe
Mode may not disable the application's system protections.
