Mmmmmmm i have had the same but the opposite applies i only get banned when i am surfing from home - whilst work (BIG NETWORK!!!) seems to behave ok.

 

Not sure what is causing it - and it has only happened in the last couple of weeks.

 

Strange.......................

 

Well i fixed it today. Re set our server at work ... did a clean out of all the Temp internet files etc on my comp and the main server ... an got straight in.

 

Before it was not even letting me enter a user name etc so could not get past that.

 

But now its all good :D

Larger networks do funky things with web traffic, so it's entirely possible :wink:

 

I can't do "remember me" from work because my IP address is always different :wink:

 

I'm pretty sure this is dependant on cookies, not IP (but correct me if I'm wrong). We have a dynamic IP at home and no issues. If you were using a dumb terminal at work or something like that though, where cookies are not stored, that might explain the problem.

All internet access is via a proxy - some of the IP addresses I have seen as allocated to me while I'm surfing are very random indeed. I suspect it is the IP thing because every once in a while, it will auto-log me in, from the short period where I was trying to get it to "remember me".
