I cannot open websites such as Yahoo and Dell. I get
messages saying that my cookies will not let them in.
I have change the Tools/Internet Options/Privacy option
to medium and low with no success. I have downloaded the
service pack with no success.
Does anyone know what to do?

Thanks.

Use this as a guide, but set all to default.

Josh,

Just something to try. If you go to the Tools menu on
the top of the menu bar (assuming you have IE6) and
select "Internet options". Then select the "Privacy"
tab. In the box that says "settings", click
the "Advanced" button. Check to see if the "Override
automatic cookie handling" is selected. If it is, de-
select it. That could be your problem. If not, obviously
it's something else! I hope I could help.
