I am writing this with Google Chrome. My IE no longer works after the surprise update to SP3. Firefox is the same problem as reported before (can't log in) even after an upgrade to version 3.

I loaded Chrome in an attempt to respond to a post here, and it worked. Sometimes it's faster, sometimes it doesn't work at all (like with my Network Solutions Email).

Just thought I'd mention it, I know the Firefox problem has been around for a while.

I still can't reproduce the Firefox problem, even after upgrading to 3.0 (and needing a Flash Beta upgrade to make Flash work again :wall: ).

I'll look at it again tomorrow.

I had a similar problem signing on with FireFox. I would put in my info and it wouldn't log me in. It would ask for the user name and password again. HOWEVER.... I would be listed under the Registered Users as if I was logged in. This was on a fresh test installation that I don't have anymore so I can't do anymore testing. For now I'm sticking with IE...

I'll try changing the cookie names at some point on Monday. The only thing I don't like about doing that is that everyone else will need to clear cookies before they'll be able to sign in.

If I do this, I'll put up an announcement.

thats weird, it must be a setting or something, because i upgraded to SP3 and then a few days ago FF updated and i guess im lucky because i have had no problems yet.

I don't have any problems with any browser, and that includes Opera.

XP SP3 went without a hitch, and I'm running Windows 2000 on another partition. Other than the borders and minimum width not working correctly on IE6 (it didn't support certain CSS features), even that works.

:shrug:

Did you try doing a system restore, or falling back to an earlier date on your computer? I had an issue when I first joined E-C where I would get booted out on my home PC (IE) on a regular basis. For some reason, I did a system restore and it has worked fine since then. Not perfect, but fine. :shrug:

Have you tried clearing all cookies and temporary files?

RobtRoma - how fresh was your install? If it was brand-spanking-new, my cookie clearing suggestion probably will not work. Did you have any browser extensions installed (i.e., fingerprint recognition software, antivirus that regulates cookies, etc.)?

I hesitate to do that, because I'd have to restore so far back that I'd lose all of the other changes I've made in the interim. For now, Chrome is working when I need to post.

Didn't remember if I tried it after the version 3 upgrade, so I just tried it - no change.

Neat approach, "WARNING! This might void your warrantee".

Tried it anyway, no change.

No problems here at the moment. Currently using WinXP with service pack 2. Using internet explorer as a browser.
