Anyone else needs to delete their cookie after a while so that you can login into the forums? This happened on Firefox but now it's starting to happen on IE aswell.

how much space do you allow for cookies? and do you have it where IE (I don't use mozilla) clears temporary internet files when it closes?

I only allow 5 megs for temporary internet files (which is plenty instead of the 5 or 10% it gives itself by default) and in the advanced tab of IE I set it to not save encrypted pages and clear temporary internet files upon closing.

100Mb for temp files.... and also clearing, check for new page each time visit etc
weird thing is it was only with Firefox but now it happened with IE, will see in 12 days if it happens again

Yeah, I was getting a cookie error where it was saying that I have to have cookies enabled (which, of course, I did). Didn't go away until I cleared my cookies. Pain in the butt. I've gotten it twice so far, and can't remember if it was on the same computer or two different ones.

I get an error saying I don't have sufficient permissions to view the page requested after login, clear the cookie and it works fine

I can't say it's happened to me although I've cleared my cookies just to clear any to prevent a big buildup. I've had problems getting onto Certcities forums several times. I get the crappy MS OLE line not specified error or whatever it is. I have cookies enabled and on the allowed cookies exceptions I have certcities.com for allow, not allow session cookies. I'm using Firefox too. I use FF 99% of the time now. I have IE disabled completely via ZoneAlarm. I use IE just for Windows Update. There is an add-on somewhere when someone mentioned running the Windows Update tool in FF. It installs a special ActiveX control, prefer not to have that in FF.
