Hey all. I run a members-only hockey report that relies on Session variable(s) to grant/deny access to members-only site content. Generally members have no trouble accessing members-only content once logged-in to the site; however, since we have a few thousand members, I frequently receive tech support requests along the lines of "My login doesn't work, I keep getting returned to the login screen". Invariably it's McAffee anti-virus, or other anti-virus program running on the user's computer that disables session cookies, or the user disabled session cookies in attempts to make their browser more secure. Is there a way to get around this problem? Not being able to set Session variable(s) is a major annoyance; one that I'd like to resolve if possible. Suggestions welcome... Thanks, --Noah
