Can't post new topic in VZW board

**Shifty_P** · 07-17-2010, 12:19 PM

I have been trying to post a new thread in the VZW board, but every time I click on "New Topic" it takes me to the log in/register screen.

I just logged in as a user and created a new thread without any problem. See the post by "Test Account" in the Verizon forum.

Must be an Internet Explorer issue. Works fine on google chrome. I haven't gotten it to work on my IE browser, though.

This is what I get...

What version of IE are you using? Do you have cookies enabled? I just attempted to create a new thread on the VZW forum using IE8 and did not get a log-in screen. I stopped short of actually posting the thread, since I did not wish to add a useless thread.

Post one if you need to. I can always delete them when we're done. I used Firefox 3.6.3 to post my thread there.

I reinstalled IE8, rebooted my pc, and tried to post again. Still no luck.

What are your settings for Internet Options Security and Privacy? I have Security set at Medium-High (default) and Privacy set at Medium.

My OS is Windows 7 64-bit.

I usually use Chrome or Firefox (running the 4.0 Beta 1 currently), but I am able to start new threads using IE8, Chrome or Firefox 4.0 Beta 1.

I have it all at medium. I haven't had problems in any other forums. I started this thread on my IE8 browser before... I just don't get it. It is kinda like it logs me out.

Is the problem only in the Verizon forum? Can you post in other forums?

Sorry, I see you answered my question before I asked it! It seems like the forum backroom guys need to look at the Verizon forum to see if there's anything different about it. I'll pass this on to them.
