If you can't log in it may be that your browser is not accepting the cookie this board uses to keep track of your read threads, login, etc.
The first thing to do is to verify that your browser is in fact accepting cookies. In IE this is found in the Tools -> Internet Options -> Security -> Internet Zone Properties. You need to verify that both Standard and Per-Session cookies are accept (You can either set it to always accept or prompt before accepting). Depending on how your 'Zones' are set up you may need to modify other Zones besides the Internet Zone. I can't start up Netscape right now but perhaps someone else can post the directions for doing this under NS.
Depending on your browser, there may be other issues. Several people using AOL's built in browser have been unable to log in. My suggestion is to upgrade to the newest IE or Netscape instead of the built in one that comes with AOL.
If you are sure cookies are being accepted but you still can't log in and you're using either IE or Netscape (newest versions), then email me a note that you can not log in along with both your username and password. I will try to log in on your account. If I can't, then it's possible your user record is corrupted and that I will have to rebuild it.
Post here if you are having any other problems logging in.
