View Full Version : Do you disable your firewall/anti-virus?

I have been having a hard time getting things to credit for a while. As far as I know, I have all my settings right, clear my cookies, use IE, have my cookies settings right etc... The only thing I can think is maybe I should disable my firewall and/or anti-virus but thought I'd ask if you guys do before I do that.

Oh, and I give up on all Modpath offers lol - They just don't like me.

I would not disable your Anti-Virus or Firewall completely. What I would check is the security level and adjust if you need to. If you are too locked down (ie everything on high) it will be blocking cookies coming in and reporting out.

I lowered my firewall security one notch...
my antivirus stays on...
the few pennies I might miss aren't worth the hassle of an infected computer...

oh and I too have given up on modpath...

Glad that I am not the only one. I haven't had anything credit in at least a week or two....since the big cashout really. Maybe they will show up as manuals?

I can't even get the MID's to credit, and they ALWAYS credit for me.

I'm going to have to go try on my old computer and see if it's something with my new laptop/vista....darn thing.

I do have my cookies level set to accept first and third party cookies, etc....

I'm starting to think that these offers just don't like me. With the survey stuff being a mess right now, and these offers not happening, Super Member is looking like less and less of a possibility this quarter. :(

I am beginning to wonder if there is a problem. I have never had such a hard time getting things to credit. I even tried shutting off my anti-virus and firewall and did a MID offer, which for me too always credit, and nothing. I know a lot of the offers right now are manual credits but many of mine should have credited by now (some are on the 'automatic credits for me' thread).

I hope it is just a dry spell :confused: But I shall keep trying :)
