FireFox 2 and login

Post by SyBorg » Thu Oct 26, 2006 9:58 am

No matter what I do I just can't login to the Forum with FF 2 today. No error message, I just get returned to the home page. IE works fine.
It makes no difference if I tell it to remember me or not. No, it's not my password.

Any thoughts?

Same setup as me. Still no joy. I've tried to log out from IE to see if it doesn't like being connected from both (although this hasn't been an issue in the past) but that didn't help. Very odd.

Is there a maximum number of allowed clients and IP addresses or something? I was just looking to see how many IP addresses I have used and I see quite a few (thanks to dynamic IP addresses and travelling).

This is a little bit odd. :?
I've been able to login using FF through the IE Tab plugin. So I'm currently able to login in IE, FF (using an IE plugin) but not 'native' FF on the same machine.

OK, I am in. Had to clear all 'private information' from FF2 and it worked. No idea why. Can cookies corrupt?
