.When you say that you adjusted the settings, what
Click to expand...
exactly did you do ? There are 2 areas that probably need
adjusted. In IE, go to Tools, Internet Options. Under
the Security Tab, make sure that your security settings
aren't set too high. Next go under the Privacy Tab (this
deals specifically with Cookies) It should be Medium or
Medium High. Obviously Yahoo may require a lower setting.
Keep trying !
