    Yes, have a look at the internet security settings, mine is on medium as default and provides ample security. Click> Tools tab on browser> Internet Options> Select Security Tab> Apply> Make Sure the Security Level is Set at medium to allow cookies. Close your browser then give it a whirl.

    If you are not running a firewall then that needs sorting. If you are running XP then at least turn on the default one.

    Have you run a full virus check (with the latest updates)?
    Have you run a spyware checker like Adaware?

    If not then do both.

    yeah have tried that, I've also tried re installing ie7 but its still like it. I'm just running a scan from avg and windows defender, I had 2 trojans in my avg vault could that be the problem. Many thanks

    If you have a trojan thats been quarantined then it shouldn't be a problem although that does suggest you should be more careful with your online habits!
