Hey guys
I am on my desktop at the moment, getting my laptop ready to go on vacation and willbe coming to the site when I have time.
For some reason I cannot log into the forums from the laptop.
It's asking for my user name and password.
I put the info in and it's not allowing me access.
I checked to make sure I had the correct info and I do.

What do I do now ?

I am able to log in on three of my pc's at the same time. As Ler suggested I believe it is your cookies. Either like he said you have cookies disabled, or you have a corrupted cookie. Once you verify that cookies are enabled and that does not work then remove the satguys cookie, or clear all cookies. If you clear all cookies rember that you will need to log into all saved login sites once again.

Sorry guys,
I lost track of this thread, until I tried to use the laptop again.

Where do I go to see if cookies are turned on ?
I am using XP for the OS.

Update:
Cookies are accepted and were being that way prior to me trying to log on.
Should I try deleting the cookies ?
