Testing...edit testing

OK. Got to work for me with IE8 as long as I don't check the remember me box which is setting a problem cookie.

I think that is the key as it is creating a cookie that is not loved by IE8.

I'm using Firefox. I have been blocked out of posting for days. I squeezed in two on Christmas Eve and that is about it. I also tried IE and had no luck with that either. Viewing was perfect but no posting. It would just "time out".

Anyway, I'm sure they will fix this next week, or at worst right after New Years once the holidays are over.

4) Opened browser
5) Logged in

Can see all posts in the thread using IE8 UNTIL new ones are posted. So clearing the cookies, etc. only works a little and who wants to do that between every post.

Still no post ability in IE8 and some avatars still red x'd.

Windows XP, IE 8.0.6001.18702, 32-bit

Posted this with Safari 4.0.4(531.21.10)

Trust me, this is NOT an individual browser issue......this is definitely on IB's side.

Shane do you have any insight on a timeframe for getting it corrected at this point?

Unfortunately not. IB has not provided us with any info on what the recent issues are or when they will be corrected. Driver is experiencing the same issues as MyG37 and I suspect My350z is the same.
