blocked cookie

Something is blocking a cookie I need to access certain sites and I cant find it.
Any ideas how to go about finding what is blocking
http //ad.doubleclick. net/adi ?

It is the only one that I am having problems with.

 

If you are running AdAware or Spybot it could be blocking it from there. Have you checked?

 

I run both Ad-aware and Spybot but cant find where it is blocked at.

 

Try opening Spybot, click on Spybot S-D, click on Recovery & see if it's in there.

 

Can't find it in there.

 

Try AdAware in "Quarentine".

 

Try restoreing the last time you had it running right.

 

Checked quarantine and have turned sys restore off and back on since it started.
Is it possible that when I deleted Earthlink any settings it may have made stayed?
I know I used popup blocker that came with Earthlink and maybe spyware thing.
I am grasping at straws now

 

Aside from checking the obvious, which you did, You're gonna have to wait for someone more experienced than me to jump in. Sorry I couldn't help.

 

Thank you for trying

 

What firewall are you running?

 

Panda now, but was running Zone Alarm. It is the same with both.

 

if you are running the zone alarm pro version then it is possible to block those cookies with the settings of zone alarm

check the following
open zone alarm
click on privacy
check your cookie control and your ad blocking

double click is probably being blocked by zone alarm since doubleclick is associated with ads.

you might have to mess around with the custom settings in order for that cookie to be allowed

What version of panda are you running.

 

I am going to disable panda firewall and go back to zone alarm tomorrow and see if I can do that. Thanks.

 

One more thing

with IE

check your internet settings. if you have it setup with strict settings that might also be causing this to happen

go to tools
internet options
privacy
down to websites
edit
then scroll down to the one you need to allow
it will probably say always block.
change that to allow.

 

Doubleclick is one of the oldest of the obnoxious tracking sites/cookies. If you've used Spybot's Immunize feature, or anything else that automatically blocks unsafe domains, it will keep anything from DoubleClick from loading.

Generally, that simply means that DoubleClick advertising won't be displayed, and their nosy cookie won't get planted on your machine. It generally won't stop a site or page from loading.

Is this something you really need to access? Any site that absolutely demands that I let DoubleClick and its ilk run amok is one that I simply avoid.

If you simply MUST access it, remove Spybot's immunization, and check whatever else you may have run to keep you safe from unsafe domains. Removal of those will be different for each program. Also check your managed sites in Internet Explorer's Managed Sites and remove it from the list if it's there.

I got one of those free pandas tht it was giving away. Platinum 7
I just reinstalled my Zone Alarm.
Will I need to reboot IE after changing it to allow?

 

Yes it is a good idea to restart

also if you have pandas firewall active it is also a good idea to not have both activated at the same time.

 

I deactivated panda firewall.
Have tried all that has been suggested and still can't get to the sites I want.
I think once my windows updates on cd get here I am just going to do a clean install and start over. It's been over a year since I got the machine so I guess its time
