http://forums.stardock.com and Auto loggers

By joelore on October 20, 2011 1:31:06 PM from Stardock Forums Stardock Forums

Hi,

Is anyone aware of anyway the page: http://forums.stardock.com is made that might make auto loggers like Norton Identity Safe or LastPass ignore it? My Norton Identity Safe ignores the login page altogether.

Thanks,

Stardock's Forums have a cookie/cookies to 'remember' which threads you have read [or not] when logged in.  I'd expect your proggy is simply nervous [overly] about cookies.

As Doc suggests.....which-ever the method make sure Stardock's URLs are all 'trusted' [they can be] ...

No, luck. There really is no "white list" but the site comes up as trusted already. This is the ONLY page out of ever (hundreds) of pages I use Identity Safe with that will not work. Identity Safe just ignores it.

Any other ideas?

Yes. Contact Identity Safe and have them see what the issue is.

Yeah, I have a 4-5 page forum post going on over at the Norton Communities site. Tried everything except for un / reinstalling all of 360. Have not opened a formal ticket yet as I feel weird as it's only this one site. Actually not even the site just the forum logon page itself. Looked everywhere for cookie rejection and it looks like I am accepting all cookies. Are there any test sites to see if I am accepting cookies or not?

Firstly, I would disable Norton and see what happens.

 

 

(Actually, I'd uninstall Norton....but that's another thread...)

Disabling Norton makes no sense. It IS Norton Identity Safe I am trying to get to pass on my username and password to the site for logon. Disabling it would defeat the whole purpose of what I am trying to do.

I tried all the suggestions I got off the Norton Community site and then I finally uninstalled/ran the Norton Zapper and reinstalled The whole 360. I still cannot get it to acknowledge that one page, the main forum page here at Stardock.

Since it is just this one page I am ready to just chalk it up as a bug somewhere on either end and forget about it. Maybe sooner or later it will work it's way out. Norton 360 V6 should be out next spring maybe that will fix it.

Actually?

RnD makes a helluva lot of sense. You asked for help, and then argue.

In a recent thread I wrote about Kaspersky and a LogicBuy/Newegg (Wizard1956) offer on Kaspersky Pure Internet Security with a $50 rebate (making it free).

So uninstall Norton and get Kaspersky.

Or argue about that too. I have a headache. Two Tylenol, Jeeves and remind me to call me in the a.m.

Stardock's Forums have a cookie/cookies to 'remember' which threads you have read [or not] when logged in. I'd expect your proggy is simply nervous [overly] about cookies.

This is an aside, but the forum recall of your thread reading is not cookie-dependent, or at least it works even when you dump all your cookies regularly.

Maybe the database behind the Stardock sites feeds cookie re-creation as needed, and that's what's making Norton balk?

@joelore: DrJHBL is being cranky, but I'll speak up in general support of Kaspersky. I'm too conservative to use anything but my memory for logins, but their suite is generally less resource-hungry than others and their UI is less cluttered with the 'helpful' stuff that gets in the way of actually understanding and controlling what your security software does.

Identity Safe is a program that basically keeps your passwords and stuff and logs you in when you go to that page?

Dude, I was not arguing, I was just stating that I thought his idea was counter productive to my problem. In order to disable Norton it would also disable Identity Safe which is what I am trying to get to work on this site. I don't think it was a BAD idea just that I see no way of just turning off part of Norton and leave other parts enabled. It just does not seem to work that way.
