You'd probably like Self-Destructing Cookies[1]. It's an addon that deletes all cookies set by a page after you close the tab by default, though you can change it per-page to delete only on closing the browser or never. It doesn't prevent the cookies from being set, but it does effectively prevent tracking if you close tabs frequently.

Not entirely, but it has it's similarities. Differences are:

* History (Personally, can't live without it). * Whitelist (HN's cookies, for example, I keep). * Saving submitted form data (for auto-complete). * 10-seconds remorse time to reopen that tab and have it stay as it is!
