> Noa, if the computer doesn't have any soft of security software, you could go into the browser's preferences and set it to not accept cookies while you're on-line. That would probably also mean going into the cookies.txt file for the browser, finding the line for Babble with your name and pword in it, and deleting it.

For now, this is probably the way to go.

With Netscape on a Macintosh, anyway, if it's set not to accept cookies (under the Edit menu, select Preferences, then go to the Advanced section) when you quit the browser, old cookies are deleted (so you don't have to worry about editing the file).

That would work, too.

Noa, thanks for pointing out this issue. I'll add a box that'll give people more control, but I don't think I'll be able to get to it right away.

My to-do list:

1. The site now saves (as cookies) email addresses (when given) as well as names and passwords.

2. New users now have the option of giving their year of birth, gender, and location when they register.

3. I need to add the box above.

4. I need to add a way to add or update registration information after you're already registered.
