Official Luthiers Forum!

Hey folks.

I can't log on to the OLF on my laptop computer. Nothing has changed on it that I know of and up until this afternoon, I've never had an issue logging on to the OLF.

This is the message I get

"Your login was un-successful due to a cookie problem. Please ensure that all cookies are enabled on your web browser for this site."

Now, I love cookies, especially chocolate chip

Seriously, I checked the settings in IE7 and nothing has changed. I haven't blocked the OLF cookies or anything.

Can someone help me please?

I have the same problem on a laptop also.
I've noticed that sometimes it will let me log on and sometimes (mostly) it won't.
I'm using mozilla.

Sorry Rod, I don't have a clue. We have an Inspiron Dell Laptop running Winxp and IESeven, logs on all the time.????

Maybe someone will have a clue, hope so. bd

Try threatening it!

Might also dump your cookies and flush your cache (no not things you would do with money and food in Hesh's old Flushtone shop ).

Here's a link at Microsoft support.

This may need to be done occasionally, but you'll find that you'll need to log into sites again where you've checked the "Keep me logged in" button.

I now use Mozilla firefox too, but when I was using IE7, I had that problem, and after logging on, it would dump me.  Go to Internet Options and delete all Temporary Files and Cookies.  Then try re-opening IE7 and logging on again.  Also use the Login Icon not the little Quick Log In thingy over on the right.  I really recommend Firefox though.  It has tabbed browsing like IE 7, but it actually seems to work better.  Some things aren't as seamless, like Quicktime, but once it works it is solid.

Thanks guys

I deleted the temp files and cookies and that seemed to have worked.

Thanks

Not only that, it is open code, and if you are a programmer, which I'm guessing Rod is not  , you can modify it to word the way you want it to.
