Login Cookies...

I belong to multiple forums that I have to sign in to gain access. I choose
to store this sign in information so that I don't have to re-enter the data
again. To the best of my knowldege, this information is stored in a cookie
and placed in the same folder as the other Temporary Internet Cookies and it
works well. My problem is: When I choose to delete my accumulated cookies,
all of my sign in data cookies are lost as well. My question is: What can I
do to NOT delete my sign-in data cookies when deleting all the other cookies?
Can it be placed in a different folder and if so, what are the names of the
files saved? Thanks, Joe "Woodchuck" Gledhill

1. Manage your cookies using something like...

Karen's Cookie Viewer

2. Configure IE such that you only accept cookies you want to keep, then
don't ever delete cookies.

Suggest disabling any firewall until cookies are working correctly. Make
certain your time, date, and time *zone* settings are all correct.

Go to the Cookies folder and manually delete those you don't want. Then, in
IE, go to File | Import and Export and export cookies. It will create an
HTM file. The next time you delete all cookies you can import back the ones
you exported.
