What Are Cookies?
Cookies are small packets of data that are sent between your web browser
and a web server. This server uses two cookies, both of which are
stored on your computer. The first cookie is required for the
software to function properly. This cookie is used to uniquely identify
you while you are using the system. If you log out of this system
when you are finished, this session cookie will be cleared from your computer.
If you don't log out but let your session expire due to inactivity, the
cookie will remain on your computer until the next time you log
in. At that point, the old cookie will be replaced with a newer version.
The second cookie is optional. It contains the name you used the last time you logged into this system. When you log in, you have the option of having your login name stored on your computer for your convenience. When you select this option, you won't have to enter your name every time you log in using this computer. However, you always have to type in a password. If this computer is used by other people, you should not use this option.
WARNING:
It is very important that your browser or any additional software installed
on your computer (like virus protection or cookie management software)
does not interfere with the ClassWeb Plus session cookie. If this session
cookie is removed while you are still logged into ClassWeb Plus, a new session
will be started for you and you will have to log in again. If you are using
the ClassWeb Plus automatic login feature,
you will be logged in an additional time without your knowledge. This will
unnecessarily use up extra copies of your ClassWeb Plus subscription, potentially
blocking other users at your institution from logging in themselves.
If you want to remove any cookies from your computer, the best time to
do this is when you are not logged in anywhere on the Internet.
Please note that the session cookie used by ClassWeb Plus is saved as a permanent cookie on your computer. This is done so that if you forget to log out of ClassWeb Plus before you exit your browser (or should your browser or computer crash), you can return to ClassWeb Plus within an hour and continue using your existing ClassWeb Plus session. If you change your computer's settings so that our session cookie is not saved between browser sessions (i.e. if you make our cookie a browser session cookie), you may use additional copies of your subscription unless you always log out of ClassWeb Plus before exiting your browser. If you are not careful, you can get locked out of ClassWeb Plus until an old session expires after one hour of inactivity. Single user subscriptions are particularly susceptible to lockouts as there are no additional copies in their subscription should one get unnecessarily tied up.
