Post by: psy on March 05, 2007, 09:27:33 AM: i'm getting way too many emails / IMs asking about this so i figured i'd just start a thread.

If your having problems logging in, or posting at fornits, simply delete your browser's cookies

Firefox> Preferences> Security> Show Cookies > Remove all

In internet exploder... you're fucked anyway. go get firefox (http://http://www.getfirefox.com)

Post by: try another castle on March 05, 2007, 12:59:59 PM: Why does it have to be all of the cookies? Can't it just be the fornits cookies?

Anyway, I tried that, but I'll try it again.

I can log in and post, but it logs me out the minute I get offline and come back on, even though I have keep me logged in checked. I figured it was part of the cookie problem.

Post by: exhausted on March 10, 2007, 10:51:45 AM: One of the regular posters here e mailed me about this a while ago, he can't log in or post as a guest, I told him to delete his cookies, but he still can't get to post

What gives?

I know he uses XP Pro, is there an issue that runs deeper than cookie deletion?

Post by: Anonymous on March 10, 2007, 11:47:07 AM: That'll require a lot more than what you just told me.

What message does he get?

Can he post on any other phpBB forums?

Can he post through a proxy such as Guardster (http://http://www.guardster.com)?

Has he tried different browsers (Firefox, maybe)?

I know he doesn't use Firefox, he uses IE

He's tried a bunch of different browsers, cleared the cookies. etc etc... It might be some funky "internet protector 3000" software jamming up the works. He's tried everything else.
