  How to Enable your Cookies?

  
  
  In Netscape:
  1. Select 'Edit' from the top of your browser and then from the resultant list: choose 'Preferences'.
  2. A small box should pop up. Over at the left hand side of this box is a list of categories. One of these is called 'advanced'. Click on this so that it becomes highlighted.
  3. The right hand side of the box should change and at the bottom of the page is a section on cookies. You should check the 'Accept all cookies' option. You can also choose to be asked about each cookie in turn, but I found this to be a real pain as you get asked so many times!
  
  
  
  Opera:
  1. Go to "Tools" then "Preferences" and a new window will open.
  2. On the left there will be a list of options. Select "Privacy"
  3. Tick the box that says "Enable Cookies"
  4. "Accept all cookies" should be selected in the "Normal cookies" drop-down list.
  5. Click "Apply" then "OK"
  
  
  
  Firefox:
  1. If you go to "Tools" and then "Options" a new window opens.
  2. On the left side click on the "Privacy" option and on the right, click on "Cookies" were you will be given some more options.
  3. Tick the box that says "Allow sites to set cookies" then click "OK".
  
  
  
  In Internet Explorer 6:
  1. Click on "Tools".
  2. Click on "Internet Options" and a new window will open
  3. Click on the "Privacy" tab near the top of the window.
  4. Drag the slider so that it is on one of the levels below Medium High (Medium, Low or Accept All Cookies) 5. Save changes by clicking "OK"
  
  
  
  In Internet Explorer 5:
  1. Select 'Tools' from the top of your browser and then 'Internet Options'.
  2. A pop up box will appear. At the top of this box are several tabs. Choose the 'Advanced'(sometimes its actually in 'Security') tab.
  3. The page you have now is all about various security options. It is probably set at security level 'Medium'. Rather than change this I suggest that you only change the cookie part of it. Click on the 'Customize Level' button.
  4. There is now a big list of options, 'Activex', 'Cookies' and all sorts of stuff. Find the 'Cookies' section. you have three choices. 'Disable', 'Enable' or 'Prompt' (which will ask you each time whether you want to accept a cookie or not).
  5. Click on 'OK' and it will be done. If you feel uncomfortable with cookies switched on, you could disable them again as soon as you have logged in.
  
  
  

  Summary

  If you feel uncomfortable with cookies, then you can always disable them after you have logged in (or registered). Alternatively there is an option to be prompted every time a website wants to set you a cookie. This allows you to accept or reject each cookie in turn.
