my dumbest trick is to delete all my cookies and then can't logon to FR.

Ordinarily, I don't delete anything because I don't know what I'm doing and don't want to mess up.

When I changed to cable, I was getting all kinds of pop-ups that were driving me crazy, so I got a Pop-Up Stopper which also let me delete cookies but save the ones I wanted to keep.

I painstakingly entered in all the cookies I wanted to save and then "cleared all browser cookies" and to my surprise, it worked!

Being crazed with new found wisdom, a week or so later I deleted all my cookies from "Tools" and lost every one. What a mess! Took me hours to find all of my passwords and to log in to FR.

Moral of story (for me): Don't delete anything!

Same here!!!!!

Hubby has a set of passwords he uses for the kiddie websites we let Jax use and I don't know them and couldn't keep them straight even if I did - if I deleted cookies she would never be able to play her games on my computer if hubby isn't home. I'm not taking that chance - because she has even less patience than I when it comes to not being able to log in somewhere!!!
