A. If you use Internet Explorer and opened a new IE Window by selecting File, New, Window rather than clicking on the IE icon or opening the program from your Program Menu you will be in the same account as the first window. RefWorks uses cookies to “remember” users. To have two accounts open at the same time you must have two sets of cookies. IE only creates two sets when you open your browser by selecting it from the Program menu or by clicking on the icon on your desktop or task bar.
