hi,
If you can't get there because you need to enable cookies, I can help you.
Go to the tools menu up at the top of the Internet Explorer or you can get there in the control panel. From there you need to open the Internet options and then click on the privacy tab.
Next click on the advanced button and look at the picture on the link below to see what has to be checked. Then hit apply and close or OK.
If this doesn't work, go to the main tab and delete your cookies and try it again.
Check the date, including the year, on your computer clock. Well ...I said it was silly didn't I? But it's a quick thing to look at ...and it really can cause the problem.
or
What happens if you turn off any kind of cookie control in Firefox. Tick the 'Allow sites to set cookies' box and select the option to keep cookies 'until they expire'.
Does Yahoo now let you in if the password is typed? If you are setting cookies to expire when the browser is closed, then the cookie won't be there (or won't be current) to automatically log you into sites next time you go back. Maybe clear the cookies and start again with the'until they expire' option set and see how that goes.
or try with other browser like opera
thank you,

SOURCE: Cannot login to Facebook because cookies are not enabled
I had the "Cookies Required" message every time I tried to get into FB using Internet Explorer for a month before I finally fixed it. In the meantime, I worked around it by using FireFox. I also found if I created a new user on my laptop and logged in as that user, I could get right in.
Things I tried. First I tried several variations on the IE -> Tools -> Internet Settings -> Privacy Tab (lots of forums suggest changes to make there). Then, I manually deleted content.ie5, and all my cookies folders. No joy.
Then I read what Gaara said on this forum: http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-159094-facebook-cant-open He/she nailed it!! I'll never know how Facebook got into my Domains key in my registry, but I sure am happy to have it gone!!!!!!
I'll paste Gaara's instructions here, slightly edited to give them a G rating:
Press "start"
(if u're on Vista) Type "run" then press enter.
(if u're on XP) just click on "run".
Type "regedit" and press "Enter"
Navigate till you get to Domain in :
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\ZoneMap\Domains
Right click on Domains, and delete the whole folder.
Close IE. Reopen. Login. Problem solved!
Only problem is, all your other restricted sites will now be gone
from the restriction list. If you're using SpyBot, just open SpyBot and
re-immunize, and they'll all come back. If you've added them manually
and deleted the Domains folder before reading THIS, then u r in for a repeat job. You'll have to add them manually, so
if SpyBot didn't create that restriction list, u'll have to re-add them
manually from the IE's Tools > Internet Options > Security >
Restricted Sites (select it, then click on "Sites" right below it) then
add whatever u want to add.
Good luck

You can configure your privacy settings in Internet Explorer 6 by clicking Internet Options on the Tools menu, and then clicking the Privacy tab.
NOTE: An administrator can customize your privacy settings and remove the Privacy tab from the interface in the Internet Options dialog box. If the Privacy tab is not available, contact your administrator, or see the "Information for Advanced Users and IT Professionals" section.
These settings replace the cookies settings on the Security tab in Internet Explorer 4 and 5 (and the Advanced tab in Internet Explorer 3). The Privacy settings slider has six settings: Block All Cookies, High, Medium High, Medium (default level), Low, and Accept All Cookies.
The following Privacy settings are available with the slider:
Block All Cookies: Cookies from all Web sites will be blocked, and existing cookies on your computer cannot be read by the Web sites that created them. Per-site privacy actions do not override these settings.
High: Blocks cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy or that have a compact privacy policy which specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your explicit consent. Cookies that were already on your computer before you installed Internet Explorer 6 are leashed (restricted so that they can only be read in the first-party context). Per-site privacy actions override these settings.
Medium High: Blocks third-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy or that use personally identifiable information without your explicit consent. Blocks first-party cookies that have a compact privacy policy which specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your implicit consent. First-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy and cookies that were already on your computer before you installed Internet Explorer 6 are leashed (restricted so that they can only be read in the first-party context). Per-site privacy actions override these settings.
Medium (default level): Blocks third-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy or that have a compact privacy policy which specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your implicit consent. First-party cookies that have a compact privacy policy which specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your implicit consent are downgraded (deleted when you close Internet Explorer). First-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy are leashed (restricted so that they can only be read in the first-party context). Cookies that were already on your computer before you installed Internet Explorer 6 are also leashed. Per-site privacy actions override these settings.
Low: First-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy are leashed (restricted so that they can only be read in the first-party context). Cookies that were already on your computer before you installed Internet Explorer 6 are also leashed. Third-party cookies that do not have a compact privacy policy or that have a compact privacy policy which specifies that personally identifiable information is used without your implicit consent are downgraded (deleted when you close Internet Explorer). Per-site privacy actions override these settings.
Accept All Cookies: All cookies will be saved on your computer, and existing cookies on your computer can be read by the Web sites that created them. Per-site privacy actions do not override these settings.
NOTE: Changing your privacy preferences does not affect the cookie acceptance policy for cookies that have already been set unless you move the slider to Accept All Cookies or Block All Cookies.
Internet Explorer displays a Privacy dialog box the first time that a cookie is restricted based on your privacy preferences. This dialog box appears only one time, unless you clear the Don't show this message again check box. The Privacy dialog box explains that a new status icon (the Privacy Report icon) is added to the status bar when you visit a Web site that does not meet your privacy preferences. You can double-click this icon to view a privacy report that explains how the Web site either has privacy practices that conflict with your preferences or has no published privacy policy. You can also view a privacy report for any site by clicking Privacy Report on the View menu.
NOTE: The Privacy slider works only in the Internet zone. All cookies are automatically accepted from Web sites in both the Local Intranet and Trusted zones, and all cookies are automatically blocked from Web sites in the Restricted zone.
