Ari Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 I've tried to register so I can post on IMDb web site, it's a film site with a message board. Anyway, I've registered and it's sent me a validation email but when I click it it gives me a message about needing to use cookies. Now I'm pretty sure my cookies are working fine, Tyresmoke always recognises me for example. [ QUOTE ] Registration Your e-mail address has been updated, but we were unable to update your cookie. Please enable cookies and login [/ QUOTE ] If I go to My Account it tells me [ QUOTE ] Hello, ari_1968 (If you're not ari_1968 at hotmail.com, please click here) Your e-mail address has not yet been validated. This means that, although you have started the registration process, you still cannot access certain features of IMDb (e.g. posting comments, submitting data). We sent you an e-mail when you registered. If you haven't received it, click here and we'll send you another. Until you get that e-mail, and click on the link inside it, your account will not be fully registered. This is your personal page at IMDb. When you are fully registered, you will be able to access all the features available to registered users and update your details and site preferences. [/ QUOTE ] Any thought or suggestions?

Waylander Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 might be being blocked by your firewall - drop the setting down a tad maybe and try again [then you can always increase it again when it is sorted]. some sites are like that. i couldnt check my webmail with wanadoo using zone alarm because of this [until site was revamped] buit had no probs most other places Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Also, you might want to move/edit your email from the above post unless you want to be a spamster's bitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooby_simon Posted August 29, 2004 Report Share Posted August 29, 2004 Ari, I think i gave you some advice a while back about needing to set up TSN as a trusted site for your firewall. As said above, It is your firewall blocking IMDB. BTW, I did bot know there was a forum on the IMDB, any good ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
