The downstairs family PC doesn't automaticaly log me in to any websites even when I tell it too. My one (upstairs) does.

Any ideas?

Try updating to the latest version of Firefox (2.0.0.3) then make sure your cookie settings correspond...

Yeah, cookie settings are what do this. Make sure cookies are on and set to no-expire.

Can I update to Firefox 2 through the Firefox that I have?

Hmm, should update automatically. If not, just download it and install, should install over the top, will keep all the settings.

I don't think cross-versioning update works right, so download FF2 manually:

Well, Firefox 2 is installed and it still isn't remembering to automatically log me in. ??

Silly question, I know, but have you checked the cookie settings? It may have inherited the bad ones from the older version if Firefox.

It took a bit of looking, but under the settings stuff, it had to keep them until I close Firefox.

I changed it to until they expire.

EDIT: It didnae work! It remembers my usernames and passwords but don't auto log me in.

EDIT 2: Deleting all the cookies seems to have fixed it. Thanks for the help.

Well, the old fix is no longer working. This problem seems to only apply to this forum.

A little thread necro here?

Delete your cookies and try again, it should work fine.

I've deleted them twice over already. Read my post!

Well it's working here, I don't know what the problem could be. Deleted temp internet files? Checking the "sign me automatically" box?

M, whats the EXACT url from your address bar for this page?

Well, from my upstairs 98 pc it is this:



I'll edit my post and add the downstairs pc's url.

To be honest, nobody should be using Windows 98, at all, ever again. The problem is probably fundamental to Windows 98. It's an awful OS.

The problem is on the XP pc. . . read my posts. . .





Although these are the reply pages. . .


EDIT: This is the topic page;

Hmm, for some reason it's giving you a session id.

It is giving sessionids because firefox is rejecting the cookies then

Why would it reject the cookies?

Meaning that it's not auto logging me in, right?

Have you tried uninstalling Firefox, removing all entries from the registry, then reinstalling?

As well as the profile folder perhaps?

Isn't there an easier option?
