Help!!
OK, I'm using firefox with Vista, & I'm not having problems on any other website...
If PS does let me log in, when I hit New Thread, it says "You are currently logged in as ErikaMarie" & won't let me post. If I try to reply, it asks me to log in over & over. Or sometimes, it won't let me log in at all.
Now, I do it like 20x, I might be able to get through... like just now. But in a few minutes, it will log me out & the process will start all over again.
😢 😢 😢
What's wrong?!

I'm at work now, on IE & I'm not having the problem here... so maybe it is me.
ugh... but I have no clue why. I guess I'll just go through the same rigmarole today.

I had this happen once, I thought it was an issue with the browser. I had to open Phonescoop in one tab, then log in with a second tab and it worked.
Have you updated your version of Firefox to the newest yet? I'm using it and haven't had NEAR the issues I was experiencing.

I swapped out the hard drive...
Boy, was that a pain in the ass... Vista does not like to be loaded. Even the technician couldn't figure out what was wrong, & I was the one who ended up fixing it. I loaded an Intel driver that was somehow required before I loaded Vista & it finally worked.

Switch to Opera! It's a VERY nice browser.

It's just about the same thing as Firefox...
Granted, you may not get some of your plugins like you have now...
I have no other complaints about it other than that.
Is your Firefox version 2.0.0.14?

I updated to 2.0.0.14 when it came out and had weird problems with the site (and a handful of others).
I had to roll my version back to my previous version. I'm using v 2.0.0.13 right now.

Click on "download this version" in the top right. Make sure you uninstall your current version first!

...

That definitely sounds like a cookie or cache issue. Something got corrupted. Clearing those should fix it.
If not, it could be something with your router, ISP, or firewall.

Twice though, it said that my IP address changed before I could log in or something...
...
That's an ISP issue. Are you using AOL perhaps? They're notorious for using a problematic proxy that does that.

ARRRG i am going through the same thing 😕 i just wrote a detailed msg of what i was going through and it just got all erased cause it said i had to log in, then went straight to the main screen and i just lost all my work, normally i copy my msg for that same reason but this time i was just going to spell check and it wanted me to log in. i had just always thought it was a sprint thing.but it does get aggravating. and yes i have cleared all cookies and such and it still preforms the same.

I've been using them for years... Never had a problem till now.
BTW, here's the exact error:
Oops! Your IP address changed mid-login. You have been re-directed to a dedicated server. You should now be able to log in without incident. We apologize for the inconvenience.

That should only happen once. Is it fine after you see that message?
come to think of it, that happened to me frequently when I had Charter. I have DSL now and have not seen that message since switching (the same message as erikamarie)
...
However, it happened the other day too.
I just had to try & log in about 10 times before it would let me make this post, though.

I've been experienceing random account timeout issues.
I will respond to a post, click into another post and trype in a short response. When I hit 'submit' and the system tells me that my account has been logged out. Fortunately the system keeps my post saved and puts it up when I log back in.
This happens once or twice a day, and it seems to be regardless of post frequency. I know it can't be an IP address issue because I have a static IP.
I just never brought it up because I figured the system was set up to time out after 4 or 6 hours. I don't know if it's related or not, but I thought I would throw it out there too.

I don't know if I was ignorant of them to date but those adds that now drop down when you hover your mouse over them are pure fail. Firefox on both my laptop and desktop just collapses whenever I try to view this site. As of now I have to use IE 7, though I considered using IE 6 just to piss people off... you know who you are.
I hate those adds... even if it's not the root of my imploding web browser I still find them invasive.

Hmm... I haven't see anything like that recently. 😕
What company are the ads for?
If you're not in the US, what country are you located in?

Canada, and it was the banner ad... I'm not sure which company though. It's gone now but if I notice it again I'll make a note.
...
Okay. We rec'd one email about ads running in Canada as well. Could they have been Bell ads? I inquired with our ad company. If they haven't stopped already, they should soon.
Please don't hesitate to give us feedback like that. In this case, I had no idea that was going on. Our ad company handles all of that; we don't actually approve individual ad campaigns (there are too many and they change too rapidly.) Plus, for ads that are geo-targeted to Canada, we never see them here in the US.
Of course we rely on ads to pay the bills, but we refuse to run any of the more obnoxious ad types. We dislike them as much as you do. And this may have been a case of an ad misbehaving... I'm not sure.
Anyway, sorry for the hassle! Thank you for le...

This is not an easy issue to address, but I may have found a solution. Stay tuned!
...
We just made a change to the server architecture that may fix this issue.
Please see if login issues have been fixed now and let me know in this thread.
Thanks!
