43257 2002-04-11 05:19:00 My two boys have discovered a website full of interesting games, etc. which requires each person to have his own username and password. My problem is that first son ticked the box to say he didn't want the information remembered. This of course he has to type in everything each time he visits the webpage. Can somebody tell me how to get his details remembered? I've checked out a few hunches but nothing seems to work. Any help will be gratefully received. Guest (0)

you msy have to clear the forms and passwords if the wrong password was entered but keep in mind this will clear all stored passwords

43260 2002-04-11 06:56:00 Been there, done that! All those options are done and I still can't get a pop-up box to let me save the username and password. I've even tried changing the password on the site in the hope that first son will be able to save it but no such luck. Guest (0)
43261 2002-04-11 07:05:00 Done all that but still can't do it, and you're right - I don't want to clear ALL passwords because that's bound to cause me some serious aggravation. Guest (0)

Try cleaning out cookies and temp internet files.

From in Internet Explorer, click Tools/Internet Options. Then click delete cookies and delete temp files. Try clearing history too.

43263 2002-04-11 10:40:00 Have you tried:

a) Deleting all your cookies?

b) Having a look in Tools, Options, General, Settings, View Objects and seeing if any of the items listed are related to this website? Right click and choose Properties. There should be a web address listed.

I recently found a couple in mine that I didn't know were there. If you find one (or two) you could try deleting it/them.

Good luck.
