Please note that you must be logged into MTS to use this server. Reasons for this not working are: .If you are logged in, then make sure you aren't using any kind of cookie blocker, like Norton Internet Security. .ry allowing "modthesims.info" in your security software for cookies. .MAKE SURE you have ticked the "Remember Me" option when logging in. If you do not, then you will not be able to download. Any Help Thanks

Have you checked that you aren't using a cookie blocker and that you allow cookies from modthesims.info, and did you tick "remember me" when you logged in? There are also more detailed instructions for solving the problem here.

I've added the site to my allowed cookies, have checked the appropriate box, tell my browser (Firefox) to remember my password, and still... nothing. When I try to download, I get the cookies error message. And I'm usually logged out when I go back to the previous page (from the error page) - but not always. I've tried using Internet Explorer, and was able to download the file I was after. Could just be an issue with Firefox (or MY Firefox at least), but as its my primary browser, I'd like to be able to use it to access the downloads.

Log out, delete the MTS cookies, restart your browser and try again. Also remember that the exception list needs to contain *.modthesims.info, not www.modthesims.info

If none of that works try removing Firefox from your computer then re-installing it. (If you do this make sure you back-up your bookmarks first).

This is just one of those things that happens sometimes with all browsers, and fixing your settings and/or clearing corrupt cookies will fix it regardless of browser. (The exception to the above, of course, is if the problem is caused by an internet security program)
