Re: Login with IE

Cleared my cookies, taken the // off and still i cant log in using IE.. firefox works fine, but i hate firefox and most people use IE as default anyway so it would be better for me to have it IE compatible.

Any ideas?

Re: Login with IE

also when i try to edit anything with the admin account on firefox i get this message:

Bad HTTP_REFERER. You were referred to this page from an unauthorized source. If the problem persists please make sure that 'Base URL' is correctly set in Admin/Options and that you are visiting the forum by navigating to that URL. More information regarding the referrer check can be found in the PunBB documentation.

the base url is correct...

I have sorted the problem tho by editing my firewall settings... so sorry for the extra post... but i still need help on the ie thing

We need a link to your forums (and preferably a login) to help out.
