Help!

I've been to the SYW forum before, and I only needed to put the password in once, and then it just let me through every other time...

But I tried getting through to the forum tonight like I normally do, and I was hindered by a, 'Your administrator has required a password to access this forum. Please enter this password now.
Note: This requires cookies!'

So I shrugged it off and wrote in 'vista' ... and the same page came up! Asking me to put the password in again! By the second time, I was so angry ... I've tried it about 12 times now.

I've definately made sure that I don't have 'caps lock' on and I haven't change any of my inernet options so it couldn't be a problem with Cookies.... or is it?

Any advice would be great help thanks!

You may want to defrag your computer and clean out your cookies. Then type in the vista, small case, again and see how that goes. Sometimes that has worked for others.

Don't defrag you computer. Just purge your cookies, empty your browser cache, log off, close the browser/Quit the browser, then log back into AW.

Make sure you know your AW password and log in.

N.B. Do Not Ever defrag your computer unless you have too because the drive is slow in reading/writing.

Defragging means essentially moving every single file. It's somewhat risky. Modern large drives rarely in need of defragging unless you're using them to edit audio and video.

Seriously, defragging can cause as many problems as it solves. You're better off making sure you have at least 10% of your drive free at all times.
