hobknob Posted July 9, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 9, 2003 Yeah, I have one. Is there anything I should do with it? edit: I don't keep my cookies in the default location but it really shouldn't matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGRuss Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Yeah, I have one. Is there anything I should do with it? edit: I don't keep my cookies in the default location but it really shouldn't matter. Just making sure that one was being created :lol: I'm still stumped on why it works perfectly well for some and not at all for others.

Eldred Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Yes, its in there! Is it worth deleting this then going back to the site and starting again? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldred Posted July 10, 2003 Report Share Posted July 10, 2003 Had a look at the cookie file...the first word on the first line says "anonlogin". Do you think this might have something to do with the problem? If so can we manually edit it to what it should be? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you think this might have something to do with the problem? If so can we manually edit it to what it should be? I wouldn't recommend manually editing the cookie at this point. You might try deleting it and starting from scratch - I don't have much faith in that as a remedy however and I'm still trying to find some reason for the problem. I have a query up on a board support forum regarding the problem so let's see if I get any ideas/feedback from that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted July 15, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 I have now found that one of my machines with XP pro will remember me in Netscape 4.74 but not in IE 6.1. My other main machine using NT still can't remember me in either browser. Still a mess since I only use netscape for messenger any more.

Eldred Posted July 17, 2003 Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Another PBEM which I play has just started up an Invision Forum/Board. Not surprisingly that doesn't remember you either! At least we know the problem is not specific to this board - looks like its down to Invision Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hobknob Posted July 17, 2003 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2003 Ahhh... I am much releived to find that it is not just my machine/firewall combination that is causing the problem. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eldred Posted July 18, 2003 Report Share Posted July 18, 2003 This is just getting stupid The other Invision board (see earlier post) is now remembering me perfectly, but this one still stubbornly refuses to do so! There is apparently no logic to this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RTGRuss Posted July 19, 2003 Report Share Posted July 19, 2003 The other Invision board (see earlier post) is now remembering me perfectly, but this one still stubbornly refuses to do so! There is apparently no logic to this If there is I haven't found it yet No pattern that I can find - OS, browser...doesn't seem to matter. Some folks have the problem, others don't. I've got one more tack to try - hopefully I can get something concrete on this phenomenon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen Mother Posted August 15, 2003 Report Share Posted August 15, 2003 I'm having this problem too. If I login (tried login, logout, login) and go to other sites and return, it's still recognizing me. But if I close my browser (IE 6.0.2800.1106IS) and re-open it, it doesn't recognize me any more. OS is Win 98SE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KOTEC Posted October 18, 2003 Report Share Posted October 18, 2003 Still having this problem. No matter how many times I visit the forum does not want to remember me. Thanks, KOTEC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hobknob Posted October 20, 2003 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2003 I use both IE 6.x and Netscape 4.7x. When using netscape I am remebered, but the borad doesn't come out right since the browser is so old. With IE I am never remembered. I am using XP Pro, NT4.0, and WIN 98 SE. I find it particularly annoying since I signed up at the IBP site and it remembers me fine. The problem has to be with the setup since the same software runs the IBP board and it works fine there. I have resigned myself to logging in each and every time and now I hardly notice how inconvenient it is. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
