Thread: some help

ok, this is in no way russia related but i wondered if someone could help me .
for some reason, ever time i turn my laptop on the internet forgets all my log in info for the various sites i go on. my cookie setting is on medium and before it worked fine like a week ago. i reset the defaults and it still happens! its starting to p1ss me off!! is there some way i disabled the cookies? if so, how do i reactivate them?
заранее спасибо за совет!

which browser did you using? and OS?

windows xp and internet explorer

properties on explorer -> "contents" or what ever it's called in english -> "Complete" or "fill in" automatically" or what ever it's called in english

and there you have some boxes to check/uncheck..

Hope this helped at least some!

If you are refering to sites NOT remembering your password info, then try this.

That is a link to turn on the AutoComplete feature in Internet Explorer.
Regards

I do not think your cookies are the problem. If you have a ZoneAlarm, something wrong could be with its settings.

i dunno what it could be. i tried all the above and it still doesn't work. i have norton, but not zone alarm

may be reinstall will help? Or maye be even do "system restore"... Or even to use another browser (actually, I highly recomend this option )

ok, all is sorted! installed the new version of explorer and all now works again. thanks for the help guys!
