Not reflecting my Clickbank Affiliate ID, please help!!

I'm new with Clickbank affiliate.
when I tried to test my Clickbank affiliate link, it reflect someone else's ID instead of my ID.
Had tried on several affiliate link, it still show the same ID.
I'm using Windows Internet Explorer 8, and had already clear the cookie and caches several time, so can anyone advise why and how to reflect my affiliate ID correctly?

 May I know exactly what affiliate link you tested? Could you please post the link here so that we can take a look? And what is your clickbank id?

 Don't depend on the url to check, it isn't accurate for some products... Click on the "buy button", go to the order page, go to the bottom of the page and you will see

[affiliate = something]

If that something is your name, then you dont have anything to worry about!

 Problem is that it show another person ID instead of mine.
When I click on the link, it show 'http://arunrathi.karinm.hop.clickbank.net/', my ID is Jazq12 and not 'arunrathi'.

Hi JazQ

I tried IE, Firefox and Chrome and all three show your affiliate ID at the bottom of the order page.

 Hihi everyone,
Thanks a lot for the reply.
I had also tried 'http://jazq12.karinm.hop.clickbank.net/' but it still link me to 'http://www.easy-family-camping-recipes.com/?hop=arunrathi'.
And everything is ok on Chrome and my Iphone, it just that I'm having problem with my IE (had clear cookie and caches many times). I don't know where go wrong.

 @JazQ, I see http://www.easy-family-camping-recipes.com/?hop=jazq12 in the address bar of both firefox and msie. And I also see [affiliate = jazq12] on the clickbank order page.

That means your affiliate link is fine. No need to worry about your affiliate link.

Don't really know how to fix your msie. Clearing cookies and cache should have done it but since it did not, it could mean you need to call your computer provider or microsoft. You could also try reinstalling msie 8.

 Hi thanks!
It seem like nothing can be to my IE then, as long it is access in another PC, I believe should be fine.
Thanks

 Hihi everyone!
solve my problem at last!
If you all encounter my above problem next time, you can try to resets the internet explorer's settings to their default condition.
