A user experienced issues logging into their @sbcglobal.net email on their laptop despite knowing the correct password, as they could log in on another computer without problems. Attempts to access the email through Internet Explorer and Google Chrome resulted in invalid email or password messages. The user suspected a virus but found no issues after running a Norton Power Eraser scan. They also faced difficulties when trying to change the password, as it inadvertently linked to their wife's email. Ultimately, the problem was resolved by resetting the password through att.com, allowing successful access to the email account. Another participant noted that they had previously needed to delete and recreate accounts to resolve similar issues, highlighting the user's fortunate outcome.

Hi, I have a strange issue, I cannot log into my @sbcglobal.net email on my laptop. I know the password, we have no problem logging in on another computer, just my laptop. I tried using IE and Google Chrome ( going to Yahoo), both kept saying the password or email address are not valid. I tried to change the password of the email on my laptop and it kept pointing to my wife email address. I manage to change my wife's password, but not the sbcglobal.net! I don't want to log out on the working computer, then I would lost both.

My first thoughts was virus, I ran the aggressive virus scan with Norton Power Eraser and nothing showed up. Laptop is working fine. I am at a lost. I don't serve around like a lot of people, everything I do is no nonsense stuffs that I don't think I would attract virus. Please advice.

Thanks

I resolve the problem. I went on att.com and reset the password and it works now.
 
Thats great. Thanks for sharing how you fixed it. In the past, I've had to delete and recreate my accts to get things back to normal so considrr yourself pretty lucky.
 
Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'
I've been experimenting with ChatGPT. Some results are good, some very very bad. I think examples can help expose the properties of this AI. Maybe you can post some of your favorite examples and tell us what they reveal about the properties of this AI. (I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
