Unable to Login With Firefox
Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
I've been using Firefox to browse the forum for years with no problems logging in. On Saturday, it starting logging me in for 3 or 4 seconds and then logging me out again, at first intermittently, and now every time. I have no problem logging in when using Internet Explorer.

No, its neither of these. It is up-to-date (version 3.6.8 ) and there can't be a password problem otherwise I wouldn't see the "You have been successfully logged in" page for a few seconds".Adam Raoof wrote:Make sure it's the latest version (help - updates)Ian Thompson wrote:Anyone got any suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Carl, maybe you could knock up a new browser while you're at it?
