Most likely.
Have you changed your cookie preferences? For example, if your policy
now rejects cookies that you previously accepted, you'll be shut out.
Or if you started enforcing a policy that was previously theoretical.
Edit | Preferences | Cookie Acceptance Policy: Allow cookies based on
privacy settings (View Privacy Settings)
Actually, I have never changed any settings in the privacy settings as I
just can't seem to "wrap my head around" how all that works, even. I
usually just have my Cookie Acceptance Policy on Block Cookies and then
use the Tools menu cookie manager on a site by site basis to allow
cookies from the sites that I want to allow. Maybe this is where I'm
messing up somehow.....? Maybe that doesn't work for some reason?
Hmmm...this seems weird. I set the Cookie Acceptance Policy to Allow
Cookies for the Originating Website Only and the Cookie Retention Policy
to Accept Cookies Normally and now am able to get into my ebay account!
Also I see the Tools menu Cookie Manager automatically reset to Use
Default Cookie Permissions. Is this normal behaviour? Am I
misunderstanding how the Tools menu cookie manager settings are supposed
to work? What is going on?!?? It would sure be nice if the Tools menu
cookie manager would work the way it appears to be meant to work, it's
such a pain to have to dig into that preferences panel every time I want
to log in to a site!
