IE had been reminding me to update for a few months now, which I finally did today. I logged into PF after the update; PF logged me out due to inactivity. When I try to log back in using IE, I cannot (I have no problem with Chrome, thanks to which I am able to post this).

In IE, after I enter my userid and pw, I am greeted with a "Thank you for logging in" message. Then the view changes to the way before I logged in (user name and pw are blank and there is no post window).

You've had trouble with chrome, now IE, you really should think about switching to Firefox - no trouble what-so-ever.

It's probably another cookie issue. Make sure IE is set to allow cookies from PF.

For sure.

When I get alerts for Windows 7 updates, I always "hide" anything that has to do with IE. :wink:
