Problems with Firefox 2.0 holding DIRx Cookies

GLOC · November 6th, 2006, 12:02 PM

Anyone else having problems with FF 2.0 'forgetting' that you have been to DIRx. I recently upgraded and previously had no problems, now whenever I leave DIRx for a sometime (ie not active in a window) then it doesn't remember me and I have to log back in again. This isn't a problem with any other sites such as YD.

I have cookies set to be accepted until they expire. I do not know how the cookies are setup on DIRx so cannot check. Stuart can you please look at this.

Thanks

i had a similar thing with FF1 a while ago and think it ended up being a broken cookie. Try deleting it and hten it'll re-create when you log in again.

Been using FF2 since its release and not had this problem...

Tried what Jason suggested and it seems to have cleared the problem.

While I go off to work now

I will turn the computer off and see what happens.

Thanks Jason, shiny incoming.
