I'm having troubles getting my account setup through the web interface.
I'm using Netscape 4.5 and I have set the cookie option to 'Accept only cookies
that get sent back to the originating server'. However, I originally set up my
account with cookies disabled. So now every time I post or reply I still get
the following message:
** Before doing anything else here, make sure that you have done the following:
** 1.Carefully and fully read the Terms of Use for this site.
** 2.Special note for 19 Oct 1998: Read the announcement about the web
interface change.
** 3.Go through the Setup procedure to request permission to post
messages.
** Continue
I then have to Identify myself and check the Terms of Use box before I can post
the message. How do I get rid of these messages so I can post and reply
normally?
Thanks
- Barbara
