Subject: RE: Help!! I've lost my identity in Mudcat!
Hi Friend:

Bill D. is right. I always delete my cache at the end of a session on the internet, which is probably something just short of paranoia. It contains the most recent cookies, so each time I come on, I have to reset my cookie. On internet Explorer there is also a directory called temporary internet files which, in my case has about 4 subdirectories with cookie files that aren't deleted when you dump your cache, and they have to be deleted one at a time. If your cookie is full, it might possibly be that you might have to go in there and delete it first before you reset your cookie online. If you're running Netscape, dumping your cache should get rid of you're cookie files. If the problem persists, try going into DOS and delete the files from c:\windows\cookies. These are the only reasons I can think of why your cookie might not reset.
