Aloha,

	I just tried something tonight and discovered something odd.  When I tried 
to log in to Yahoo Groups and sign in to an account I have as a moderator, I 
received an error message saying the browser refused to set a cookie and that 
cookie was needed....  (Mozilla 1.2 just downloaded and installed tonight..   
I had the same problem with Konqueror, so I figured it was probably not the 
browser.. ) 

	I checked and I had some other cookies from Yahoo and others in my cookie 
file so I know cookies work.  Just for grins, I disabled my Internet 
Junkbuster and everything worked just fine with the login to Yahoo. However, 
what a pain that was -- I was immediately flooded with a bazillion pop ups 
etc....  Anyway, it struck me as odd that only that particular cookie 
transaction would fail and all other cookies seem to work just fine.  

	Has anyone else experienced anything similar???  If so, how did you fix it?

Thanks,

Ben
