1.4.3 "browser does not accept script cookies" and "don't have permissions"

[deepwaters]

Hello. I just installed 1.4.3 (www.eldervikkijohnson.org/photos). At the login screen I see the message "browser does not accept script cookies." When I type in my login info and click continue, I get a message that says "You are not logged in." I tried again (after turning my firewall back on) and received a message that said "Bye Bye..." and then was redirected to the main screen. I tried logging in again and this time it looked like I was logged in, but when I clicked "config" it said "You don't have permission to access this page." Apparently, I'm not logged in after all. Could someone please give their expertise? Thank you.
