I'm having extremely annoying problems logging in... It is definately SETI@home, becuase the problem happens in both Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.12 & 2.0.0.14, also Internet Explorer 6...
And only on the SETI@home login page...
When I go to the BOINC manager, and click my account, I'm taken to my account which everyone sees, then I click account, and I have to Sign In, "Keep me logged in" is ticked,, But I have to log in, And when I do, It says I have to log in again, displaying the very same page as before, and yet I try again and it doesn't log in....
If I untick the keep me logged in box I try and log in, but I still can't, it reloads and displays the same login page as before, and the keep me logged in box is still ticked, like I never unticked it.

I have tried disabling & enabling password remembering, clearing my cache, deleting temporary internet files, to no avail!!!

Anyone having the same problem? And can anyone Help?

Best Regards,
Luke.

Make sure your web browser cookies are enabled...
If they are, remove the setiathome cookie and try again... ;)

And NO problems UP- & DOWNloading W.U.'s, it's strange.
But it's solved, cookies, setting off you firewall/virusscanner/rootkitscanner, all can give trouble.
I'am using Firefox 12, FireBird and I.E 7.01(X86) & I.E.64Bit 7.01
IE7x86 is very fast when used on a Q9650, running WIN XP Pro64.It's a memory-hungry program and can get what it needs, 200,000KBytes or more is 'normal'.

On an Apple computer, it means the cookie file got corrupted... But on a windows machine, only the pc gods know for sure... ;)

In Windows, it is still "the cookie got corrupted".
