Cookie Problems

I've suddenly started having cookie problems. I have to log on every time I access this forum. I know this has been discussed before but I can access other forums with no problem. Your cookie [email protected][2].txt is present in my cookie list. IE6 is set to accept cookies with low security setting for your site, etc.
I short, I've checked everything! Any ideas please?

I don't know why you and others are having this problem.

I set my IE security to Medium and did nothing else (and I've been viewing this site every day for almost a year without having to re-log back in.

If anyone has any ideas, please share them!

I think I've cracked it!
In IE6 go to Tools/Internet Options/Privacy
Set the slider on Medium.
Click on Edit.
Type uk-polos.net in box 'Address of web site'
Click on Allow
Click on OK
This setting allows the cookie for this site but keeps the privacy setting at a reasonable level.
Make sure when logging in after this procedure that the tick box to remember this log on is ticked.

You also need to add tigerstyle.co.uk to the list of allowed cookies. See my previous post.
This forum is turning into a computer forum - sorry!

I was about to add..... I think you'll need to add the acutal host address to that list. tigerstyle.co.uk.

Don't seem to be able to add the host address to tigerstyle.co.uk.
It seems to work OK without
