sure: Tools/Options/Privacy
Since you're smart enough to ask, you'll also be smart enough to click
the exceptions button and then first thing put in "google.com"

I would set Firefox not to accept cookies, and then make exceptions to
allow only those cookies that you need.

I installed AdBlock-Plus extension and three subscriptions (EasyList, EasyElement, ABP Tracking Filter) and doing so knocked out the snoopers. Now when I run SpyBot SD it finds >>NOTHING<< to complain
about.
