Not sure works fine for me
Might have your previous username &/or password memorized. Clear that off as it's working for me but I mainly only use http://www.opera.com/ as my browser. Faster, less virus/malware writen for it and if you have to then use Firefox or MSIE. Absolutely no reason you can't have it on your PC as a 2nd, 3rd, 4th or wherever browser.



Give it a try sometime but remember you may want to customize it to your liking and over time, when you get it set up as you like it, you may like it better. If you don't like it simply uninstall it. Very simple program, no spam, no junk and runs on most any platform/OS. I like the absence of junk and the only time it ever bothers you is if there's a new version out. It will "plug and play" so to speak but when you spend some time with it you'll find there's a ton of customizable choices built in. A fair amount of them take some poking around to find but considering the simplicity it can't be beat.

Phil, I am posting this reply from Firefox. It has always worked great for me. Actually, I am logged in, at this moment, in Safari as well as, Firefox. I have never tried Opera, may have to give it a whirl.

Firefox works fine for me. must be something going on with your PC
Odd. I only use firefox. I would say clear all the cache, cookies and if it auto fills in passwords delete the permissions for this website.

Gene, I've used it for years because rarely does anyone write anything to attack it. There will be those occasions where you're stuck with having to use Firefox on a website, just as with Firefox there are occasions where only MISE will work. Very simple, very clean but you can go into it ( opera:config in the address bar then <ENTER>) and you can almost re-write the entire program but there are simpler ways to play around with the preferences. They trimmed the GUI down a lot over the past 2 major revisions to make it simpler for the normal user user. It's all still in there but you just have to get used to it. If you make any changes be sure to hit OK or it won't save them. Plenty of support out there too.



Try it out, I think you'll find that it's faster than the rest and one heck of a lot less cluttered when you get it set up as you like it. In actuality the learning curve is easier than anything else and far more easy to customize.
