I have had the same problem recently on my daughter's laptop, but not my wife's. Never had a problem on my old laptop.

I also set up our newest member Tractorboy the other night. In his case we had problems until we lowered his privacy settings. That fixed his problems, but when I returned home, it did not work for my daughter. For some reason, it just seemed to start working yesterday on its own.

Guys,

I've had emails from Brian (Morecambe), Steve47 and Tylo saying they are having problems logging into forum too.
Main reason for nothing on here is that I too have not been able to get on for last 2-3 days!!!!
I've checked with Proboards (guys who host these forums) and they have 'made changes' to some of their systems on 30/04/09!!!

One thread I followed on their support board was that perhaps people now need to change the link they use to access the forums. I've always used the link on the main website and this was not now allowing me to log in. However I see that M3 and Dorset Yellow have been on today so maybe they use something different.

The support board suggested using the link direct in your browser so I pasted the following link into my browser and it then DID allow me to login successfully to the forum.

samspud.proboards.com/index.cgi?

I've asked Steve47 to try the same to see if this is the answer.

Cheers,

Steve

And I've just noticed that the link I have on my main website page is to samspud28.proboards.com so I'm guessing that link no longer works correctly.
When I get a chance later today I'll change the link on the main page for those that use it.

Steve

Yes know about the above as I actually work with computers day in/ day out squire....
I suspected it was more than just cleaning out cookies! ;D

Anyway back logging in ok now, thanks Steve

i didnt have any problems logging in as i always did a search for poole town on google and then went into the forum that way would look like this affected people who had the forum bookmarked in there favourites.
ohh well all sorted and hopefully some more posts and more people will be here has been a very quiet weekend

I must admit one of my concerns was if anyone did a 'Poole Town FC forum' search and missed the 'home page' and all the various links including the 'Branksome proposal' link. As there is no link on the forum page back to the home page.
By the way, my chance to thank Steve for an excellent site.

Thanks for your work Steve, had put some microsoft updates on last week, thought that was the problem :-)

[Bay Dolphin]

Thanks Steve(s), logged on in the usual way twice today so no problems at the moment!
