Re: Why would IE6 not write a cookie?

@poprivet -

Thanks...but I know how to post topics/replies to a forum.

Actually IMO, that is a very rude signature, and would be banned on
many of the forums that I regularly post to. It is very
condescending...and doesn't instill any confidence for an OP to accept
your assistance.

I know it doesn't for me.

@Robert Aldwinckle -

As a troubleshooting effort, I set IE to accept all cookies, and
disabled my anti-virus/spam/ad-ware programs...so nothing should be
interfering with the cookie being written.


As to the cookie in question, it is a "forum preferences cookie". If
the cookie is not present on your machine, (I assume that) the website
will write your "forum preferences" (which are saved on the website)
so that no matter where you are, your preferences are available.

The symptoms I have are that my preferences so not show up...so this
can only point to the fact that there is either a problem writing the
cookie to two different machines (unlikely), or the cookie is not
actually being sent (properly) from the website...since I have already
"opened up" the machine to all cookies.

I know that my browser works on other forums that use this same scheme
("preferences"/ is the cookie name)...it is just with this one
particular website that I have issues.

Thanks.
