Hi

I am trying to sign into my member account on a website and when I click
login it says that I must have cookies enabled to view this page. I have gone
to internet options and changed my privacy to accept all cookies and still
not working.
I have tried everything--emptying temp int files, deleting cookie files,
disabling spyware, etc.
Nothing is working, also I do not have problems using cookies on any other
pages and I have contacted the webpage and they said none of the other
members are having problems logging in. Please help!!!!

Do you have a firewall that's eating said cookies? Normally that's the
problem though some AV software vendors have taken the road of eating
cookies too. I'd check there.

HandT,

The fact that only one site is giving you problems tells me that it is the
site that has the issue, not you. Often if you ignore the error and continue
to attempt log-in things will work.

When you say you are deleting cookie files, does that include index.dat? If
that file is corrupt, you can see problems.
