Cookies and computer nerdy stuff


Just setup my new computer which came with Vista ... seems to work fine with other forums but with TRT somehow threads which have been opened/viewed seem to show up as if I have never seen them before (light/dark thing). I don't know squat about Vista but did manage to go into internet section/privacy and make sure TRT is excluded from their pop up protection .. did not fix. Suspect it's a cookie related issue and would appreciate some help.

I hate Vista...I remove it and install XP with all the latest updates/service packs on all my machines.

Actually I don't hate Vista...it's just that it doesn't work right! Especially when you try to get drivers etc.

Tim .. thanks for the response.

Is there anything that I can do to resolve this issue or is it something on TRT end.

Not a big deal but it is an anoyance.

Most likely your cookies are turned off. I know with my Mac if I am in "Private Browsing" it does the same thing.

Try clicking on Tools, Internet Options, and then the Privacy tab. See what your current cookie level is set at. Mine is set on medium and TRT does hiccup from time to time, but for the most part it works pretty well.

Thanks

Tried the std stuff but its still hit/miss .. suspect its a TRT problem since this is the only forum where I seem to have the issue.
