nytimes.com not recognizing cookie

The nytimes.com website keeps logging me off every day or two. I've written
to them but they have nothing useful to say. I want to make sure cookies are
enabled for this site. (I believe they are). What can be causing this
annoyance? I don't have this issue with any other site.

Thanks,


Oreally

The NYT has nothing useful to say on far more topics than your cookies.

You're welcome.

The NYT not remembering you can be the NYT or any of several settings in
your machine.

Look in TOOLS>OPTIONS>Browsing History. There is a checkbox, Delete History
on exit, that you can check or uncheck. There is a Settings Button that I
have set on my machine to Every time I visit the webpage.

If you are deleting the cookie(s) on exit, then you might find that you have
to re-enter the same information on the next visit. If the pages do not
update automatically, then you might not be updating on every visit.

Also under TOOLS>OPTIONS, there is a Settings button that will display a
variety of checkboxes that you can select and deselect.

If you have the settings in your IE done properly, and the NYT still forgets
who you are, then the problem is with the NYT. Personally, I can't imagine
why anybody subscribes to the NYT either in print or online, but that's just
me I suppose.
