    ...But I cleared my cookies, why can't I re-vote?
    « on: August 20, 2009, 09:30:45 PM »
    Okay, so I want to register more than one vote a day. You can do that by clearing your cookies. I clear my cookies but I still can't vote more than once. What's wrong? Oh, sometimes I run into a site where I can vote more than once by clearing my cookies but why is it that on others I can't?

    Thanks

    Why would we help you defeat even rudimentary security on any site?

        The site probably logs and blocks your IP after you vote .

          We will not help you circumvent security features.  It doesn't matter how small they seem.

          What part of this don't you understand?

            So why doesn't it block everyone's. They tell me that Google Chrome bypasses it but I don't want to download another browser. I barely know about IE.

              Quantos, there is no part of "THIS" that I don't understand.

              Karnac, thanks.

              it does not because you can double vote if you do one vote in IE and one in FIREFOX
              but do not that voting system is for opinnions if you double vote
              you will mess up the real results

              That's too bad.  We still won't help you circumvent even minor security.

              If we knew what the site was, we might be able to tell what was causing it. But not how to get around it.
