DU computer technies! Need help. My computer is no longer keeping me logged in
on both DU and on Facebook. I have to log in every time I enter those sites (the only two where I need to log in). I don't think I DID anything to my computer but obviously something happened. Can anyone tell me where in my computer's inner workings is the off/on switch that will keep me logged in during the intervals I am not on DU and Facebook?

Thank you!

1. You need to check your browser's "preferences".
Make sure you can accept "cookies". How you do this depends on what browser you're using.

3. I'm unfamiliar with AOL's browser.
In the browser I use it's at the bottom of the "edit" menu. I'm sorry I can't be more helpful.

4. sounds like you may have "Delete cookies when exiting" set wrong.

5. Any ideas on how I can fix that? I went under settings but didn't find anyting about cookies.
I'll go back and look. I think "settings" is prolly the place tho, right?
