    I've been unable to log in this morning using MSIE or Opera, but I can get in using Firefox. Anyone else having this problem?

    MSIE does a lot of screen flashing, then says "You are not authorized to view this page".

    I'm in the U.S.

    I updated my FireFox browser to 1.5 last night, and thought it might have mucked up MSIE & Opera, but the FireFox forums swear that's not possible; that FF doesn't share anything with other browers (like JS or Java).

    Did you by any chance also update FireFox recently?

    OK, problem solved.

    Google apparently made some changes to their login scripts, so that they now require pop-ups to be enabled in your browser.

    The only residual issue is that I can't find a way to fix the problem in MSIE 6 without enabling *all* pop-ups. Blocking all except those from "adwords.google.com" doesn't work; nor does allowing pop-ups from secure sites.

    Problem seems to have no connection with my Firefox update done at the same time.
