This *can* be solved from your end.
If you use Netscape Communicator, you could set up different profiles for you
and your son. Then you'd have the ability to use different cookies,
bookmarks, colors, etc.
But seeing as how you're using MS Internet Exploiter, this isn't as easy to
do...you'd have to have completely different Windows accounts! :-/ Under
Windows NT, MSIE gives a different profile for each login name. I'm not sure
how it works for Win 95/98, except that support for user login names is
extremely flaky in Win95 at best...

| Dear Todd, I posted the following message some time ago, but never got any answer. The problem is that my son and I seem to have to share the same user ID as it seems Lugnet can only access one cookie at a time. I *hate* posting under Marcus' name (...)
