Tom's Hardware login issue with 3rd party cookies

[mattkiss]

I can only log in to tomshardware.com if I enable 3rd party cookies in Firefox or Chrome on Win 7. This seems a bit sketchy. Even if I disable all 3rd party cookies and add exceptions for tomshardware it still doesn't worK. In either case I get the error message "AN AUTHENTICATION EXCEPTION OCCURRED."

Adding exceptions for tomshardware.com won't help because those would be first party cookies, not third party You need to add an exception for https://purch.auth0.com. That should be the only third party cookie host required.

Randomizer is correct. We currently use Auth0 for our long-in software as it enables single sign-on across the Tom's Communities. Many ad-blocking programs flag Auth0 since it is seen as 3rd-party software when it is technically a 2nd-party software.
