I tried going back to my 'first' OS, the one i always use and started giving me headaches friday with the log-in difficulties.
As you know from above, I went to my second OS (same winXPPro but diff install - no updates except SP1,never used to visit here before) and was able to sign in and post properly.
Then I came back to this #1 IE6 (all updates as of Oct 29) and I had the same trouble - sign in page kept refreshing when I hit submit (oops) but it showed me as signed in at the bottom.

Now the good part!
I took my cookies, there are two of them for WPW, from browser #2 and compared them to browser #1's - and they were differrent - no prob, diff version of IE6 duen to updates?
But I copied the new cookies into #1 cache and PRESTO!, here I am like I, and all of us, should be.
Okay now, any ideas? Keep in mind that minstrel cleared his cookie cache and still was rejected LOL.
Also, I haven't logged out yet, or tried it with no cookie, so we shall see.
10a brit = 2a mikmik time, it is now 2:39a Pacific (mikmik).
So, carbonize, we will see Leeds Utd. playing The Rovers Next season, yes?
