Text preferences not changing on second computer

March 31, 2001 7:37 PM

I read MeFi from two different computers (one at home, one at work); I changed my MeFi text preferences on my machine at work and they applied without problem. The prefs don't take on my home machine, though, even after I went to the bother of going back into the prefs on my home machine and resetting them again to be exactly the same as my work machine.

Yes, I have the same fonts on both machines, as well as the same browser (IE 5.5 SP1).

Any clues?

I don't know what's up with that. Have you tried logging out and back in? or destroying your cookies at home, then logging in again?

I tried logging out/in, but haven't tried killing my cookie. I'll try that tonight and let you know.

Blowing away the cookies did the trick. Thanks.
