Default PBW - Login problem

Hi all!
Does anyone else has a problem to login to PBW at the moment?
When I enter my password, it just returns me to the login screen again and awaits my input without an error message. If I use a wrong password it will give me the correct error message so.

I was able to log in BUT could not navigate once "inside" the web-site. This was about 9PM Eastern Last night.

I get an "error on page" message.

I'm now at another computer and the login works again for me. Strange, but just might be a rpoblem with my machine.

Maybe you did disable cookies? PBW needs them.

I thought of the cookies first and checked if IE would accept them which it was. As it seems Zonealarm didn't like the cookies but didn't want to inform me about it either. I killed Zonealarm for the PBW login and now everything is back to normal again even with Zonealarm running. Thanks to all for your help!

Why wouldn't it like cookies?

I guess my Privacy Settings in Zonealarm blocked them. This integrated pop-up blocker and cookie killer is really useful (if it isn't blocking PBW ).

Try Mozilla/Firefox. The integrated cookie manager is very userfriendly to configure and easy to use. Pop-up blocker etc. is integrated also, of course (I think IE is the only browser still not having something like that - but, well, apart from some gazillion security patches there has been no real change or even improvement in the Last years).
