It looks like the cookies gets corrupted under some circumstances. I cleared them out, and my portfolio now shows non-zero values. The cookies look like *@login.cnbc.txt, *@cnbc.txt, and *@contests.cnbc.txt. Under Windows, they are normally located in your user directory.

Alright I'm liquid again, thanks!

I too am using Firefox. Had to clear them several times. Try looking for a cookie folder called contests.cnbc.com and clear it out completely. Took two or three times. I think I also closed all windows, backed out to the desktop and then reopen Firefox before trying to access the contest. That finally worked.

All in for Monday with 380,000 shares of PRM.

Still at 6% rank.

Don't like what I see for PRM aftermarket, so may be sunk
