Okay, I have a wierd problem. When I go to login to the forums here, I cannot login when using firefox. Everytime I put in my info it takes me right back to where I need to login. When I switch to ie with firefox, it allows me to login. Anyone know what could be causing this problem? I don't have any problems with any other of my logins just with MaximiumPc.

Im running windows xp sp2, firefox 3.5.6

Go to the Maximumpc Homepage (not the forums) if it says you are logged in click log out. Now come back to the forums and log in. I had the same problem and that fixed it for me.

If that does not work maybe you should remove all cookies from your computer then try logging in again.

It didn't work by logging out of the main page. I had to clear my cookies. Thanks for the help.

Yep, me too. endless loop in Firefox. Fortunately, it works fine in Chrome (now only if Roboform worked properly in Chrome!).

Oh yeah, one more thing. Spell checker does not work in Firefox either. Since I cannot sppell, that sure would be nice!

I use FF and I have never had an issue logging in.
Then again I go straight to the forums and skip the homepage...

Hey, we know the workaround, the reason this was posted is that not everybody would figure it and it is bug that should be fixed. Not being able to log in would be a major deterrent to new members.

Agreed, as I went through the log in loop a couple weekends ago, so this thread did help, as I use LastPass and it would continually re-enter my info. Now at least I know where to log in first. :)

Clear the cookies in FF. That will fix it.

I just use the settings for FF to store my PW and check the box underneath your username and PW that says stay logged in or keep me logged in. That way, you don't have to keep clearing cookies/history.

I can't believe that I'm getting the Firefox login issue. Never had it before, and wondering what has changed. Well at least the cookies work around works. :evil:
