LordFett Posted March 6, 2006 Share 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? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
