A cookie needs to be set for most parts of our web site to work.

If a cookie can't be set then our website will think you are not logged in and will restrict your access.

Click here for a Google page which tells you how to enable cookies, but if you are like me, you don't want every web page to be able to set a cookie.

So what I do is set an exception - and here's how. (Your version may vary a little from these instructions)

For Firefox

1. In your browser's top menu click: Tools - Options - Privacy Tab
2. Next to the 'Accept cookies from sites' option, click the 'Exceptions...' button
3. Into the field 'Address of web site:' paste this- www.aboutwindows.com.au
4. Click Allow
5. Click Close, then OK
6. Shut down and restart all open Firefox windows
7. Voila!

For Internet Explorer

1. In your browser's top menu click: Tools - Internet Options - Privacy Tab
2. In the Settings frame click the 'Sites...' button
3. Into the field 'Address of web site:' paste this- www.aboutwindows.com.au
4. Click Allow
5. Click Ok twice
6. Shut down and restart all open IE windows
7. Voila!
