I went to sign into a website and at the top of the login screen the message above was displayed. I've seen messages before for pc not accepting cookies, but I don't know what script's cookies are or how to resolve the problem. As far as I'm aware cookies are enabled on my pc, at least I haven't had any problems logging onto other websites. Is there some way I can check if cookies/script's cookies are enabled? Thanks for reading and in advance for any help offered. hedley

Hi Hedley

Do you have JAVA JRE 1.6.18 installed

If not, go here: http://java.sun.com/...loads/index.jsp
Select the JRE offline download, download it, close browser, install JRE allowing it to create its own access to the internet

Hi Doug, thanks for the reply. I have Java SE Runtime Environment 6 update 1 & Java 6 Update 17 installed on my pc. Do I need the one you specified as well as, or instead of these? The only website I'm having this issue with up to now is one that I have to log into to use the gallery. I can go anywhere on the website, but to enter the gallery, the rules are you must login. I have been a member of this particular site for a few years and my login details were fine for about 18 months or so. Then I had to have new login details supplied because the one I started off with would not work. I must be onto my 3rd or 4th new login details by now. They worked each time for the first time, next time I went to login a message came up that login details were incorrect. On speaking with one of their staff she said their 'tech' had said I probably didn't have cookies enabled on my pc. Again he supplied me with new login details. When I tried to login in with those the message I gave in my post came up immediately. (This is the first time this particular message has appeared). Hope I haven't bored you with all the details, but javascript is something I know nothing about. Thanks for the help. hedley

hedley,

since you are able to log into other websites, it may be that they use a specific (and unsigned/unverified) java script for their cookie/ActiveX/.
Ordinarily the Default settings for IE - Tools - Internet Options - Security - Internet - Default Settings --- should be satisfactory.
If you TRUST the site, you can place their address into your Trusted Sites so that they can have trusted status.

Give it a try to set Internet to Default (as above)
or
Place the site into Trusted Sites
