LordFett Posted March 6, 2006 Posted March 6, 2006 My ex-wife has asked me for some computer help (we have a child together or I'd never speak to her). Her computer will not accept cookies. I have tried every setting I can in IE and then installed FireFox and it too won't accept cookies. I ran Spybot S&D, Adaware, Microsoft Anti-Spyware and cleaned everything up and it is still happening. I've also run a virus scan (it was a while ago so I forget what they had).I figured that even if it was a setting in IE installing FF wouldn't even care what IE said.I suggested we refomat the computer (it is 3+ years old and always full of garbage) but she didn't like that idea.Anyone have any ideas what this could be? Is there a setting in Windows to blanket refuse cookies?
WolfX2 Posted March 8, 2006 Posted March 8, 2006 I have no clue which OS ur running but i'll assume its XP (be sure to list that next time)go tools>Internet options>Click the privacy tab>and the default button>hit ok and restart the computer.it should now accept cookies
LordFett Posted March 9, 2006 Author Posted March 9, 2006 Yes it is XP. I meant to post this in the XP forum.I think we tried this, but I will try again on Friday. Thanks, I'll let you know if it worked.
