Ok, so here's my problem. When using my laptop at home, I've had a new problem come up that I've never experienced. And suffice it to say, I'm extremely NON-computer savvy!!

Whenever I try to sign in on FT at home, it accepts my info, the page changes and says "thank you for signing in aucarol" and when it goes to the next page I'm not signed in. It seems as though it accepts it, but doesn't. No error report generated or anything.

I was told to check my firewall, but I don't even know how to do that.

So my question is this: How do I fix this?? I don't like not being able to post on FT, or be entertained in Omni!! And I suppose my second question should be "why would it do this all of a sudden?"

Any help would be very much appreciated!
This sounds like a cookie issue. The first step would be to erase your temporary (or cache) files off the machine. Are you using Internet Explorer or Firefox?
