Clearing your cache and SSRN specific cookies ONLY is generally a good first step when trying to resolve any SSRN related issue. After clearing, you MUST completely close your browser and then reopen it. We highly suggest you have only one browser window with one tab open when you start the clearing process. Be sure you only check Cache/Cookies in the list of items to be cleared.
