Has any one had problems login in to Press F1 with Firefox? As I can’t login with Firefox, I get this error message:

>>> Invalid username or password Jim.

I have reset my password 3 times; I have removed the Press F1 cookies 3 – 4 times now

Before I give up on Firefox ( or Press F1 :D :p) & uninstall it & go back to IE

Any ideas?

Note: I am posting this from IE

253243 2004-07-18 06:16:00 It the removing of the cookie that is perhaps causing the problem, since upon removal firefox blocks subsequent cookies from that domain by default. Try adding pressf1.pcworld.co.nz to your allow list. :) AlexF (2316)

I got that message too once,using firefox but really had been putting in wrong password. I thought it must have been Jim's password but obviously thats not the case if you got the same reply. Then when it did the same thing with the right password, I did the following and it came right.

In tools>options>cookies>exceptions I have put in
pressF1 dot pcworld dot co dot nz and pressed the allow button.

I also went out of firefox, did a restart, and into firefox again and it worked.
