Cookies help

Hi,
How do I get ny browser to accept cookies? I click on websites and they come up with a mesage "We have detected that your Internet setup is NOT configured to accept cookies"

I've followed the instructions in the help function but it still comes up. Any ideas? I'm using IE7.

Thanks

    It already should be. Go into Tools, Internet Options, Security and set it to Med-High.

    I tried that first and it still does it.
  • start --> control panel --> Network and internet connections --> Internet options --> Privacy --> advanced

    Put a check in the "override automatic cookie handling" box and then in both first party cookies and third party cookies choose "accept" you could also choose the "always allow session cookies" option too but it's not essential.

    Changing back to the original settings if you need to is as simple as following the original instructions and taking the check mark out of the "override automatic cookie handling" box.
