Internet Explorer

I have been having a problem surfing the web. Some of the sites say that I must have cookies enabled. When I check thru Tools, Internet optons, Security, it shows that cookies are enabled. Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

You are at the right place, if it says cookies are enabled then they are. Nothing else to do!

Yep, had that happen & Wayne knows; checked a myriad of stuff and then finally called my ISP and ran a new install; everything works fine now

Going back over a number of variations and (as an appraiser-never know how much space is left in the noodle at any given time) came to the conclusion that (happened to catch a blurb on the host server going down) maybe that had something to do with my problem. Now, you need to know that I am on a "dial up" - chances of getting DSL or anything faster is a ways away.

Good Luck 8)

I just found this on my ISP,s website. Although I don not use version 6 I will try it and see what happens.
