How to fix my internet cookies

[Hylian1]

This forum, my forums, my website.... my cookies just WILL NOT save anymore and it's starting to become a hassle. I really need to stay logged in when i'm here and elsewhere--especially when working on my site--but I can't. So if anyone here knows how to fix this problem, then by all means, please do tell. I would greatly appreciate it! :)

If you're using Firefox, make sure that in Tools -> Options, the bubble for "Allow sites to set cookies" is checked. In any other browser, make sure the same bubble is checked wherever it is. Also make sure you don't have the browser set to clear cookies whenever you leave a site - that can be a problem.

How do you check to see if i have it set to clear cookies?

That depends which browser you're using.
I use FireFox, so I know that if you want to check if FF clears cookies, go to Tools -> Options and look at the tab marked "Cookies" (this is also where the cookie controls from my previous reply are). There's a box that says "Keep cookies:" Make sure it's set to "Until they expire" for max cookie life.
("Cookie life" ... ? :D)

Or just press Ctrl + Shift + Del to delete all cookies.

If you use IE, go to Tools -> Options -> Delete Cookies.

Well, I'm using Internet Explorer. Don't have Firefox.

Go into your Internet Options and hit the "Delete Cookies..." button. It'll suck to lose all your logins, but it fixes the problem.

I experienced it a lot back when I used to use IE.

If your using fire fox you need to get a plug-in called cookie monster , It keeps your cookies safe from viruses , malicious web attacks and the cookie monster.
