hhc.com is no longer remembering my login, I have to put my username and password in each timeI visit the site, even though I'm making sure the checkbox is checked. I can't be sure but I *think* this started after I installed the latest windows updates yesterday, cos it's worked fine for over 2 years, and loads of other websites aren't working properly since then as well (particularly gmail).
Has anything actually changed in how the site handles and sets cookies?

Have you checked your internet settings in IE? I've found a few updates tend to alter these settings.... one of the main reasons I'm a firm fan of Firefox

Thanks for the quick response, but there's no need to turn this into a firefox debate...
...as soon as I posted this I realized the problem. Simple answer: I am a retard. Detailed answer: I had managed to set my system date to 19th April (I can remember doing it actually, was looking at the calendar and pressed OK instead of Cancel), so obviously any new cookies being put on my PC were for invalid dates and were being ignored by the websites that put them there in the first place.
Long story short: DOH!!!
