My husband and I cleaned out the temp files (something he does regularly) and it worked. It worked so well I now have lots of registrations for a few books, all the same! I will work on that tomorrow. Thank you all so much. Lupielady

It's the computer program you use to access the Internet. I was wondering if it may be causing you to have problems using the BC site. You might need to clean a few things to get your browser (ex: Internet Explorer 6.0, Netscape, etc...) working a little better. If your operating system is Windows (ex: Windows 95 or Windows XP, etc...) then try the following steps, it's just something basic you should do from time to time. On your computer's main screen (desktop) click these open in the following order: start, settings, control panel, internet options. Once you have Internet Options open click on the tab on top that says General. Under that you will see different sections such as temporary internet files and history. Now, you want to click each of these one at a time: delete cookies, delete files (if it asks you if you should delete offline content click yes), and clear history. Here, next to the clear history button, you can also set the number of days you want to keep pages in history. This is how many days worth of information you are storing on your computer regarding the different web sites pages you visit. For example: If you go to Bookcrossing and click on 10 different pages there, all 10 pages are stored in your history. You can access the pages later if you want to by clicking the histoy button on the toolbar at the top of the screen while you are connected to the internet. A long list will drop down. Honestly though, how often do you need to pull up a web page you were on 3 weeks ago? The problem is if you have your "days to keep history" set at a high number (I think the default setting is 30) then you are storing a lot of useless info for no reason. I would recommend setting this number low and coming back in on a regular basis to delete the cookies and files. So try this and then go back to Bookcrossing and then see if you can register and change the info on your books. Good luck, Sandra penguinlady930 [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] Have you told a friend today? http://bookcrossing.com/tellafriend Archives and email list settings: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BookCrossing _____ Yahoo!
