I've tried clearing cookies (also wiping my favourites bar and re-adding AW), but I seem to keep getting the same problem.


I downloaded a newer version of internet explorer. Each time a click on aw, and I'm brought to the main page, I type in my details, click log in, the dial goes round to say it's loading, but nothing happens. I have to re-type the password and log-in again. Same goes for when I've managed to log-in: I have to load, wait, re-load for a thread to come up.


I was wondering if anyone had an idea what I could do check this problem out.

I use Firefox, but just for a test I was using IE this morning (and upgraded to 9). I didn't have a problem with it.

Have you checked to see what other processes you have running, and whether they're eating up cpu time or memory?

I take it this has been a consistent problem since upgrading, not just a problem you've had for five minutes. I don't think just upgrading would have changed any of your settings (such as having AW as a trusted site).

I got your rep.

There might be a problem this morning. Someone else reported not being able to log in.

Hold on.

Have you tried logging out and closing IE, clearing all your cookies and cache, and then bringing IE back up and logging in to AW again?

It sometimes works. And some times it doesn't.
