I am making this post on my work computer as I am finding it impossible to sign into the message boards from home.I can manage my account and view the store and my downloads but when accessing the Messageboards I am asked to sign in again..on attempting this I am offered a blank page.
Does anyone have any idea how I get round this. I'm running Windows 7 with Norton 360 v4

Since there's no difference between signing in to view your account or your downloads or the messageboards, I'm going to say this is a temporary glitch with the instance of the site you're accessing from home. Usually this will just go away with time, but if you want to speed up the process you can delete your paizo.com cookies and you'll get assigned to a new instance randomly, which probably won't be having the same problems.
Thank you Gary will try that once I get home
Well I deleted my cookies through both Norton and IE Tools and am still having the same problems.
I'll try resetting the modem..this problem has been going on since last Friday
Resetting the modem proved fruitless.I have onbe last option which is logging on through my laptop and hoping the instance isn't the same one.
Logging through laptop failed however I have installed firefox and can now access the boards again..it seems its a problem with IE for me
I agree Gary..it is weird..what is weirder is that Paizo is the only site that seems to be affected by it, although to be honest my connections to US based servers can be patchy a lot of the time(very old cables connecting my house to the phone network here).I have no problem signing on through IE from work just from my home machine.
Anyway the problem has been resolved and thanks Gary and Vic for your suggestions
For what it is worth, I just tried (this very session) logging in with IE9 64bit, on Windows 7 64bit without any problems.
