Am I the only one who just gets a blank page when I go to the F@H forum web site? It's been this way for about a week now.

Their root page loads OK for me, and there is a news blurb posted there:

If you do try and login you will most likely be presented by a blank page, and any subsequent visits to pages on this forum will cause the same thing to happen.
If this happens to you, you need to delete the session_id cookie for forum.folding-community.org, the name of the cookie is phpbb2fah_sid, then restart your browser to make sure.
As long as you remain as a guest user, you will still be able to browse the forums, and you can track the progress of this problem in this thread:

Users who have set their profile to "Remember me" should not be affected by this problem and can post as normal.
It might be useful if members who can see this post, repost it in their home forums, just to let people know whats going on.

Go into preferences, select security and then hit the show cookie button. Then search for the problem cookie and remove it.

Good lord. Well that was just plain easy. I tried all kinds of command line searches, tried Pathfinder searches. I should have known better.
THANKS!

Actual locations for cookie files:
Safari 2
(home)/Library/Cookies/Cookies.plist
Firefox
(home)/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles/(nonsense text)/cookies.txt
Opera
(home)/Library/Preferences/Opera Preferences/cookies4.dat
Camino
(home)/Library/Application Support/Camino/cookies.txt
OmniWeb (older version)
(home)/Library/OmniWeb/Cookies.xml
iCab
(home)/Library/Preferences/iCab Preferences/iCab Cookies
It's interesting that Safari is the only one that doesn't have the browser name in the file path.
