Title: Sign in window pop-up
Post by: Stokerman on November 03, 2026, 09:21:22 PM
For some reason I am now getting a pop-up window with each operation that I try on this forum. So far it hasn't actually blocked me from doing anything, but I have to wonder if I'm getting any updated posts with this blockage occurring. Last new post I see is about a week old.

Wow that is strange, I don't get any Popups and the last post was by me on October 28th.

Thanks for the response, Bill.

Guess I haven't missed any new posts, and I am able to access everything on the board it seems and even post things myself, but still, every time I click the little sign-in window pops up at the top of the page and blocks me from doing anything else until I cancel it. Then I can again make one move, but when I do it pops up again. I've tried repeatedly to sign in and make it go away, but as soon as I click on sign in, it pops back up blank again. Aggravating to be sure, but I can work around it with a whole lot of clicks!

Same here, Sign In Popup.
Multiple machines, multiple browsers.

Thanks for your input Greg, but no, that did not resolve the issue. What it did do is wipe all my saved websites from my browser bars on three windows I had open. I have always gotten a "Restore Pages" option when I did a restart before, but not this time. Ouch!

However, I've been needing to clear that bar of long unused place holders for quite some time now, so I suppose that restarting from scratch is actually a good thing as I never seemed to get around to that "house cleaning" chore, so doing it unintentionally took care of that issue for me!   ;c)

clearing the cache should not affect saved bookmarks

clearing the cookies for just this site should not disturb any other site.
