Trouble with log-in

SeaLily;

Welcome to the Proxo forums.

It is indeed a cookie, which is a common theme amongst most forums or boards of this nature. The solution, as you found out, is to simply disable Proxo, sign in (with the "remember me" box checked), then sign out gracefully. (Upper-most white box, end of the line that starts "Welcome back, SeaLily.....") Now you can safely engage Proxo, bring up the forum in your browser, and you should be logged in automatically.

The thing is, Proxo has a few default cookie filters that will force the browser to set any permanent cookies as temporary. When you leave the browser session, the cookie goes away, leaving you in deep kimchee the next time you want/need it. You could search Proxo's filter set, and turn off the cookie filters individually, but for the most part, just doing a general disable for a few moments won't hurt, and it's much faster.

You could do worse than to ask ProxRocks to show you how to make a fake cookie, one that will be recognized by your favorite website, but is totally false when it comes to data that personally identifies you or your machine.
