Seeing all this intelligent stuff on the forum makes me feel really dumb Anyways, I would like to ask if someone could help me out. I am trying to set up a WebWiz forum on our local intranet. About half of the computers do not allow anyone to log in due to cookie problems. Changing the settings to 'accept all cookies' does not give the desired result. What else can I do?

The strange thing is that I don't have problems logging in to this forum. Is there some setting I have to change in web wiz itself?
