100212 2002-11-21 08:21:00 I have a problem where my comp wont accept any cookies under IE6. Also the security certificates are all showing as expired. I have tried reinstalling them multiple times and have reduced security settings to low.

No change.

Any ideas will be greatly appreciated

Thank you

100214 2002-11-21 09:28:00 Are you sure you are running IE6 there should not be any security certificate problems with this.

Set all IE options back to default.
With IE open go to Tools/Internet Options
1/ On the General tab press "Delete Files" then tick "Delete All Offline
Content" then press "OK". Now press "Delete Cookies" then "OK" .
2/ On the Security tab press "Default Level" then press "Apply"
3/ On the Privacy tab press "Default" then press "Apply"
4/ On the Content tab press "Auto Complete" press "Clear Forms" then
"OK"
then "Clear Passwords" then "OK" then press "OK"
5/ On the Connections tab select your ISP connection and press "Set
Default" make sure the "Always Dial My Default Connection" is selected.
then
press "Apply"
6/ On the Programs tab press "Reset Web Settings" remove the tick from
"Also
Reset My Home Page" press "Yes" then "OK" then "Apply"
7/ On the Advanced tab press "Restore Defaults" then press "Apply" then
"OK".

If, for some obscure reason, you changed the date to last year - then the security certificates will be "out of date".
