I've logged out and logged in twice. No effect. I rebooted. No effect. I've checked my cookie settings, and they're set to accept cookies from Auralmoon and keep until they expire. I checked my cookies and have 11 auralmoon.com cookies.

I'm using firefox and am about to update the software. Other than that, any ideas?

Thanks,

Check your cookies again. You should have and Aural Moon cookie: jalUserName and it should be your username, Yesspaz. The code checks for the presence of that cookie. It's very simple checking at the point where that error message is generated. If the cookie does not exist, you will get that message.

Firefox is often times brain-damaged in the cookie department. It's brain-damaged in a lot of departments but that's a rant for another day. You might want to delete all of the Aural Moon cookies, clear your cache, and then restart Firefox and log in again.

Firefox => [Edit] => Preferences => Show Cookies
Hightlight Auralmoon.com and then click [-- Remove Cookies]

Firefox => [Edit] => Preferences => Setting
[X] Cache (clear the [_] for other items) then click [ OK ]
now click on [ Clear Now... ] to zap the cache.

I find on Linux, where I use Firefox, that this only tends to remove links in Firefox to content in the cache directory. I have a script (./clean.sh) which actually deletes (securely deletes too as it's nobody's business where I've been and what credit card numbers and other identifying numbers I may have entered) the cache contents.
