Photobucket help!!??

Can anyone help me?? i cant get Photobucket to come up on my home computer. I can get it to come up when I use my computer at work but at home I just get to the logon page. I enter my logon and password and it just sits there with the graph at the bottom at the half-way point??? It even looks like the screen "refreshes" every 30 seconds or so but still doesn't go anywhere. Is there a setting on my pc that is messed up. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks-
Claude

Clear your cache and restart the machine.

If you are using VISTA disable that "no scripts" nonsense; and, allow pop-ups.

Yikes!!!!!

OK.

Open "Internet Options," in the control panel.

Delete internet history. (Also delete cookies, etc.) The correct check-box is "delete all."

Then, restart the thing.

Go to photobucket and sign in.

Make sure you select "delete ALL" in the internet options, when clearing the cache.

Restart.

Turn off.

Restart again.

Close any photo editors that are in the tray.

Go to PB.

Currently, there are no listed issues with PB.

make sure you don't have the site blocked. also make sure your addy is right. Photobucket.com has been making changes lately.

If the laptop is running VISTA, try entering the url INSTEAD of clicking on your saved link.

Also, a while back, PB made some security changes. Make sure you have the latest copy
of anything they download.

The entry problems are common, BUT they have, as far as I know, been mostly related
to legacy tokens/cookies/add-ons in the cache.

...........................

It is a best practice to dump EVERYTHING that is in the cache, when you close a session.
