I have Web Wiz Forums 7.9 and i like the feature that it automaticaly cretes a cookie. The problem that im having is that the cookies taht are being generated from Web Wiz Forms are interfering with some of my other cookies. I have fuly tested thes hunches. And it is indeed the cookies coming from Web wiz forums. It interfers in a way that i am able to log in wit hthe other cookies but when i need to use the cookies for searching for items it bounces me out and want me to log back in.(this is not with web wiz forms. Thsi is a resut of what hte web wz forums cookies do to my other cookies.)

Please i need your help. Becasue the place that i work for is not to hapy with me having to take their forums off line.

Greg

The forum cookies shouldn't interfer with other cookies unless they begin with 'WWF' which seems unlikly.

If you do need to change the name of the cookies used by the forum edit both the coomon.asp files and change the part that reads:-

Const strCookieName = "WWF"
