This happened when upgraded from 2.6.1 to 2.62 and Mr. Zero put out 2.63 with a new file. (I may be incorrect on the versions)
anyway
This worked for me then and it worked again for me on the 2.66
Guests couldnt play because of the cookie issue.
Upload this file and they can. (make sure your settings are correct to allow guests to play)


Hope this works for you.
