This is probably a stupid question but I'll ask it anyway. :-)

Why do I have to login twice to access these forums?  I enter my user name and the correct password and it seems to ignore the attempt.  I enter exactly the same data and it accepts it.  It's not a major problem just annoying.

This is not a one-off, it happens every time.

Why?

Thanks,

Tony

There is reason but don't remember why.

It's here in a post or on a bug.

Something to do with authentication but damned if I can remember what.

...
1. Read the Manual
2. Read the Wiki
3. Don't ask for support on Unsupported versions of software
4. I have a job, wife, and kids and do this in my spare time. If you want something fixed, please help.

I think there is an issue with the way the form is handled by chrome, or related to script blocking.
