First of all, I am not banned. I checked. ;) I thought it was a problem with Windows 98 SE, since I just reformatted and downgraded from Windows ME. I reformatted and reinstalled Windows 98 SE. It still did not work. I ran IEradicate and totally removed Internet Explorer, and reinstalled from scratch. It still did not work. I tried using Opera, in case it was a problem with IE in general, and still no go. I just got done reformatting yet again, reinstalled Windows ME, and it DOES NOT WORK! :( I enter my information to login, it says Thank You For Logging In, We Are Taking You Back To etc., etc., but I am not logged in. The site I am trying to login to is running the latest version of UBB, if that is of any use, but I never had this problem logging in there before. Can anyone offer assistance?

Steve,

UBB, like most forums, uses a cookie to remember your login. From the sounds of it, I don't think the problem is on your end. More likely, the particular script responsible for the function is fluxored on their end.

If you want to test whether or not your system is working with UBB (and you're not already a member at another UBB forum), you could sign up at mine and try it: http://www.hardwarehottalk.com.

Well, I signed up and logged in no problem. The version I am having trouble with is UBB 6.04d, though, not 5.37. It does not seem that there would be a problem like this that would develop between the two versions, though. :confused:

Well, the Admin for the site logged in using my account no problem. So something else is wrong. I just upgraded to IE 6.0, and that did not solve the problem either. :disgust:

Maetryx here, :cool:

So far as I know, ShotgunSteve's problem remains unsolved, so I will bump this question. We both have spent a lot of time trying to solve this one.

I have wondered if it was something that his DSL ISP could be fuxoring up for him. I can't think of anything but it is one of the few things that are similar amongst all his re-formats and reinstalls. Anyone?

Whatever is going on apparently only affects me when I try to login at sites using the newer versions of UBB. I try to post the problem in the Forums set up by the software developer InfoPop but I cannot post the problem there, because they are running the newest version of UBB. :|
