Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / IE 6.x / March 2006ie6 - cookies blocked no matter what the settings
winxp pro, ie6, all updates installed Starting about a month ago any site the has cookies has them blocked no matter what the settings I select. The Privacy Report icon shows up with a red dash through it. When I open it, it shows the blocked cookies. When I double-click on each blocked cookie, I set it to "Always Allow this site to use cookies", but they're are stil blocked When I click on Settings | Privacy | Sites I've added the site to Allow cookies Under Advanced I've checked Override and Always Allow and Accept both cookie types I've deleted temp files and cookies And I've tried many combinations of the above too - cookies are still blocked I have similarly configured pc's that don't have this problem (Other browsers on the same pc work fine) Thanks for any help Hi, Possibly a corrupted Cookies folder. Export any cookies you wish to save (IE> File> Import and Export) Logout then login as administrator or another user with administrator privileges, make sure that you can see hidden and system files (Folder Options> View) then delete the affected Cookies folder from Windows Explorer. Restart. Import cookies if you saved them. Hope this helps, Don [MS MVP- IE] <dean.h.brown[at]gmail.com> wrote in message news:1143662854.458397.317570@v46g2000cwv.googlegroups.com... > winxp pro, ie6, all updates installed > [quoted text clipped - 20 lines] > > Thanks for any help Thanks - that didn't help but maybe it'll lead to a solution. My user account has admin privledges, but I logged on as the admin and was able to delete the cookies folder (and the one index.dat file in it) Logging on as the Administrator the sites with cookies do work so now I know that IE isn't hosed, it's some kind of permissions thing - maybe a registry issue? I'll try regmon and filemon to see what's not working... I can run IE with no problem logged on as myself (admin privledges) and using Run As to run IE with Administrator credentials Running RegMon (trying IE as myself) I found these keys that are Access Denied: (I've replaced my domain and username). I've tried resetting the registry keys with myself and even Everyone Full Permission but still get these errors: 233 9.37812042 iexplore.exe:3852 OpenKey HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\Cache\Extensible Cache\UserData ACCESS DENIED Access: 0xF Domain\username 276 9.38556957 iexplore.exe:3852 OpenKey HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Lockdown_Zones\ ACCESS DENIED Access: 0x20019 Domain\username 281 9.38568783 iexplore.exe:3852 OpenKey HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Lockdown_Zones\ ACCESS DENIED Access: 0x20019 Domain\username 1100 9.50311375 iexplore.exe:3852 OpenKey HKCU\Software\Microsoft\windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url History ACCESS DENIED Access: 0x20019 Domain\username Are you running a third-party security program that might be locking these keys?

It might be time to try a new user account? 279783 - How To Create and Configure User Accounts in Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=279783 811151 - How to copy data from a corrupted user profile to a new profile: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=811151 Hope this helps, Don [MS MVP- IE] <dean.h.brown[at]gmail.com> wrote in message news:1143678957.033128.83180@u72g2000cwu.googlegroups.com... > I can run IE with no problem logged on as myself (admin privledges) and > using Run As to run IE with Administrator credentials [quoted text clipped - 22 lines] > HKCU\Software\Microsoft\windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\Url > History ACCESS DENIED Access: 0x20019 Domain\username |
