Logging in from the US

Hi-
One of my friends on this side of the Atlantic is having trouble with the site. He sent me this message earlier today-


quote:

Yesterday, I tried to register and everything went well. Their confirmation email came through and I became a full member. Logging in yesterday was hit and miss. Sometimes it would automatically have me registered when I went to their site, sometimes I would have to go thru the login screen, other times, I could not login no matter what I tried. The problem is, I cannot login today. I tried erasing my browser history and cookies. I tried rebooting my computer. Nothing helped.


Any suggestions? I can forward info to him, if you wish me to.
Thank you-

First step is try a different browser -- Mozilla Firefox or Google Chrome

That was quick! I've forwarded that suggestion on to him. I'll report back later with his results.
Thanks!

i lived in the states for 18 months and logged in everyday without issue. Both with firefox and IE

Gents, I thank you. At least for the interim. I am the person that GonzoRacer was talking about. It seems that I have no problems logging in when using Google Chrome. My problem is that I use IE9. That is the browser of choice for me. It is what I'm used to. What can I say?

So it would appear that my issue is with IE9 and this website software or just my setup in IE. Any help in getting IE to work would be appreciated.

Thought you were after a job as a lumberjack for a minute.

no issues with IE9 and this site on my win7 x64 machine (no special settings or plugins)
