I don't get it. I have cookies enabled(at least, I think I do), and I still have to type my username and password over and over again! Someone please help me?

Well, I think the problem might be that the cookies are blocked from Your-Site.com cause of the spam and crap... I am not sure thought.

Cookies aren't a server thing; they're a compy thing, and the reason behind this is actually quite simple and a stupidity on my part.
See, time was, I stored all cookies on RE under respective directories. Then I got CGI and I pretty much had to start storing them all at base-level. Problem is, when I added the Forums, I accidentally named its cookies the same as the REL cookies. So, I have to go through all the RE files and change the cookie names. It's nothing terribly difficult, just time-consuming and sucky considering that right now I'm going through another connection-speed lull and it could take me days to re-upload all corrected files.
Now, most people don't have this problem as their REL name and password are the same as their Forum name and pass. Nifty, huh?

Oh? My Forum username and password and my REL username and password are the same too. But I still have that problem.  ;

Well that I just have no explaination for; you must have cookies disabled or some odd-ball thing like that.
I wouldn't know how else to explain it.

Do you know where I can go to to enable cookies? I've been looking forever, and I still can't find where you ajust cookie settings. I'm using Internet Explorer(dunno which version) and Windows ME. Do you think you can help?

Unless I'm grossly mistaken, the option to set cookies should be under Internet Options somewhere (in the Tools menu).
I think it might have something to do with security; I'm not to sure. I've just always had 'em set.

Oh my! I don't know what I did, but now, it looks like I don't have to retype my username and password anymore! Somehow. Yay! Thanks a lot MintMan!
