Cookie accepting prob.....

[mrDrive]

Where can I access the cookies (Temp. Internet Files) that are loaded on my machine?

A forum that I visit is not recognizing the cookies I need to logon. They should be there b/c I had no problem logging on until I upgraded to XP (from 98).

Anyone had this prob.?

Thanks for the help.

...I should add that I have IE6 and my firewall set to accept all cookies.

Could this be a server-side prob.?

Thanks again

Upgrading to XP changed the version of IE that you're using to 6.0. Go to "Tools -> Internet Options -> Privacy tab" and click the Advanced button. Here, tick the option to "Override automatic cookie handling", set 1st and 3rd party cookies to accept, and also tick the option "Always allow session cookies". Make sure you close and reopen IE.

This will set the lowest security possible for cookies...

Since you also mention the firewall, temporarily disable it if the above doesn't work. Try and narrow down the problem. It's got to be either IE or the Firewall that's blocking them...
