Hey Steve and Hunter,

I have a question... My boyfriend would like to join the forurm and also join in the football pool, but I don't know how to have him sign up. He uses my computer and everytime we try to log me off and create a new user ID it logs me back in. Actually, I don't even know how to create a new user account! Help!

Sometimes that happens with certain sites. Delete your cookies and he should be able to do it.

As far as the football pool goes, just have him email me or just send ne the checks along with his email address.

As far as the Forums go, you may not be able to have a 2nd person join as your computers IP # might prevent it. You could try as different IP provider and just sign up for their email option.


I sent your email to Hunter and he might have a better answer.

Kurt is probably right - you need to dump your cookies. The process is different for each browser but I'm sure you can figure it out.

You might also try hitting log-out and then rebooting your computer before you try to create a new account. This might obviate the need to remove all the cookies.

Please note that dumping your cookies will log you out of all sites on your computer - you will have to re-login to any site you visit on your computer to re-create the cookies.

Thanks guys! I don't really want to dump my cookies- or lose them either! I'll just tell him he can't have his own ID. He is really more interested in the football pool anyway. He likes Las Vegas, but he doesn't love it like we do! Thanks for your quick responses- you guys are the best!
