Several people have wondered why their username won't appear unless they first do a post. The problem is with the cookie that is set in your browser. If you are having this problem, it would be a good idea to print a copy of this post so that you can follow it step-by-step and then proceed to fix the problem.

Fix for cookie loss problem:

First go into your Internet browser and look to see if cookies are turned on. This setting is usually found under security. If cookies is turned off, then change it to accept cookies.


If cookies are on then try this:

Close any open page to ProwlerOnline. Now open your browser and remove your bookmarks (favorites) for ProwlerOnline and the discussion forum if you have set one there also. Now type in www.ProwlerOnline.com and set a new bookmark.

Go to the discussion forum, and select preferences in the upper right hand corner. Once in preferences, select delete all cookies set by this forum. It will ask you to confirm and say yes. Now click on return to preferences, once you're back in preferences, it is important to select the "Default Topic View" and set it to show 20, 30, or however many days you want the topics to continue to appear. Now, click on "Submit Preferences" at the bottom of the page.

Now go to the Test Forum area and do a test post to set a new cookie.

Please feel free to contact me by email if anyone requires further assistance.

Crawler - Mike showed Al Gore how to invent the internet, so that he could TAKE credit for it. George W. will never let Mike forget that, unless he moves to the White House. Just what I've heard, no cold facts.
