Lately I have to manually log in every time I visit WinCustomize.
Is this happening to anyone else?
Wednesday, April 12, 2006 by NetBadger | Discussion: WinCustomize Site Issues
The Headline and Sub title pretty much say it all. In the past few days, every time I visit WinCustomize I have to type in my user name and password. I think there used to be a button that said "Remember Me" which is also not there. Has there been a change lately, or am I just stuck getting frustrated in the Twilight Zone?

I tried Sir Zubaz's link, which kills the old cookies. I left the site, came back and logged in. I left the site again, and it remembered me when I came back. So it seems to be working. Maybe this thread can help some others who are having the same problem.
Thanks Sir Zubaz!

T-Man gave me the link. I just know how to copy and paste.
It must suck to be the admin of a site like this and be busting your butt everyday to keep everything going and see these errors.
Pat (and Dean & all), next down you're in Houston, burgers and beer at my place. You can decide if Brad can come or not.

For some reason Firefox isnt remembering the user id and password..i have to put it in constantly...but that cookie link seems to have speeded things up a bit ....

The cookie killer didn't kill my cookies (Opera 8.54)
I had to manually delete them, but after getting new cookies, I still have to log in on every visit.
Just now when I tried to post, I was logged out after clicking submit and the site had that half painted, everything skewed out of position look. Something tells me this ain't a cookie problem.

I think my cookies may have been startled or possibly deeply frightened by that link, but killed? Alas, I must still endure flash ads while manually logging in. I don't have to do this anywhere else; even the places I don't have a paid subscription & history of software purchases. This behaviour started the day before yesterday.
XP pro SP2, all current winupdates, Trend PCC, Spybot, Adaware, MSAntiSpy, hw firewalled wireless router, privacy set to med high, nothing has changed except making wincustomize "trusted" to try to solve this. Didn't work. I've never had to mess with this stuff before.....how do you edit autocomplete?
Cookie-whacking site says there are 11 cookies & that it's attempting (?) to kill 11 cookies.

I thought my problem was solved with the cookie killer, but it didn't last. I manually deleted all the cookies too. I am having the same type of problem as Pictoratus but with the FireFox browser. The featured skin on the front page was missing for almost a day too.

Cookie killer plus manual delete of cookies has worked for me, at least for now. I'm using IE6.

Wizops/Admins are having the same problem. I suspect that some major work is being done in the background. Hopefully things run smoother later today.

Same here, in both Firefox and IE 6.....all seems to be working well but for the edit function, tho I'm sure the crew are working to fix that ASAP as well
Had to fight off some blue furry thing for mine....called itself 'Cookie Monster'

Why is wincustomize allowing this ???
I am fully paid up, logged in at the time and happens on lots of links from the main page.
This has started since Friday yet support does not reply - gone phishing no doubt !!
This is illegal and not what I believed wincustomize behavior.
