Help with IE8 pls
« on: 02 August 2009, 19:36:50 »
Ok....so i have my new toy....a netbook  :)
Ive put IE8 on it, but it doesnt want to log on as TD when i come onto OOF, automatically, I have to logon each time.

I thought it was a cookies issue, but ive tried lowering the privacy setting to 'accept all cookies' but it still doesnt want to play ball.

Its probably a silly setting, i havent found yet, so i thought id ask.....other IE8 users....have you had the same prob?  :-/

Only other thing to mention, is that since using IE8, when i do logon to OOF, i get the spoofing error message that i seen others mention.....never had that warning before using IE7.

Have you added OOF to the compatability list?

Just tried your suggestion m8.....

Closed the tab....opened a new one...and still had to log back on manually  :(

So unless you have to restart IE, it didnt work  :(

Worth a try, it's how I solved the problems I had on Windows 7 RC1 and IE8 using OOF.

Other than occasional rendering issues, I've had no hassle with IE8, and I use it with OOF

Just delete your cookies again

Also, are you using your own home broadband?

Do you log outy of OOF ...if you dont oof will remember your IP and when you log back in using www.omegaowners.com...it basically sees somone else trying to log in with the sdame IP adress ...if you use www.omegaowners.com/yabb.pl......whateaver it will see your previous session and oof will know who you are ....Hope that makes sence ?  :y
