[Solution] YouTube 400 Bad Request: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE

YouTube iconHave you ever see the following error message when you are trying to access YouTube using Firefox?

Bad Request

Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.

Cookie: VISITOR_INFO1_LIVE

It used to happen to me. Then after a while, it’s gone, and now it’s back at a higher frequency. I have to clear the cookies every single day to do away with the error message.

After a bit of Googling, it turns out that there are quite a lot of other Firefox users with the same problem. If you are one of them, try the following steps to see if it helps:

  1. Locate your Firefox profile folder (how?)
  2. Delete cookies.sqlite and cookies.txt

It works well for me.

    Louis Vuitton Outlet Store handbag has the GG company logo on every single some of it and it is usually available in a brown or light tan and grayscale coloration and possesses an individual connect. This is simply not the sole unique bags like by large photographs!? ?
