    Bit of an unusual one this but, I need to create a cookie manually to add to my torrent server for use with a private tracker (Demonoid), for this i need the uid and pass from my browser like in the following pic, Link here to what I'm trying to do

    But when I open cookies in Firefox or IE I just get this, with uid but no pass

    I've tried Firefox and IE on both Xp and Vista but to no avail. Does anyone know how i figure this one out? Any help would be great.

    Thanks in advance,
    Pog

    Have you tried clearing all cookies then starting again?

    Or added the site under the options-->privacy tab and choosing to allow all cookies for the site under exceptions?

    Ya, tried that.
    Think i've found a way, seems the uhsh is the password. I'll have to wait 24hrs to find out if it worked, from here

    Ok, thats not worked, I was hoping it would keep me signed in and update my ip address. My ratio is miles off. Problem is that I'm running torrents using my torrent server and logging in to demonoid on my pc, both have the same public ip addresses which changes daily as I'm with Eircom. I log in2 Demonoid in the morning before work and again after I get home but its not updating, it shows the following:
    Uploaded: 485.36 MB
    Downloaded: 609.20 MB
    Ratio: 0.80 (Updated once a day)
    When I've easily downloaded 3Gb and uploaded continuously at about 25KB/s for 3 days. All my torrents are shown as seeded more than 100%. What do i do

    Just a little update on this, it seems this is a regular problem with demenoid, but stopping and restarting the torrents each day it sorts it out.
    And then, there is the issue with people using broadband connection which use Dynamic IP. With dynamic connection one’s IP changes every time one disconnects and connect to the internet. So suppose you login to Demonoid and download a torrent. And now you disconnect thinking that you will download it later ! So next time when you connect to internet and start downloading from Demonoid , you have promptly forgotten that your IP has changed ! So whatever download or upload you are doing , Demonoid is unable to associate the IP now being reported by your client. So all data transactions now you will be doing, Demonoid will give it a miss.

    People with Static IP don’t have this problem. But still quite a few time their Ratio refuse to update.
    Well I am going to give you an almost foolproof method of making sure your ratio updates at Demonoid.
    Here goes the mighty knowledge.

    * 1.Clear all cookies in your browser and logout of demonoid. Restart browser
    * 2.Login to Demonoid and browse their torrent section for about 2 to 3 minutes
    * 3.Download the torrent , and open it in µtorrent. Continue downloading it and later seeding it.
    * 4.Every 6 hour stop each of the torrents from Demonoidat least once. And if there are more than 1 torrent from Demonoid in use, stop 1 at a time and at an interval of 1 minute.
    * 5.If you download torrent for lesser time, stop the torrents one by one at a shorter interval.
    * 6.Restart them one by one, should you need to continue downloading or uploading.

    Just make sure you stop them at the mentioned interval at the very least.

    I'm ok for a bit, just maintain this ratio:
    Uploaded: 4.44 GB
    Downloaded: 609.20 MB
    Ratio: 7.46 (Updated once a day)
