Help!Gmail problem!
 
I've installed XP and now I can't access Gmail. :bigcry:

I originally got the login page and clicked not to be asked for my password for a fortnight.Ok so far but then it's gone mad flashing through in a loop of redirecting and loading and so on. :Yikes:

Help! I have so much stuff stored there that I need access to after the install.

Incog. :(

Well I have just started up again with XP instead of ME.I've also got a new IP address courtesy of the BB reinstall.

Could this have summat to do with it?

Nope, Gmail logins are done via the web interface and cookies, can you make sure your firewall and or pop up stopper software isn't interfering with it?

All sorted! see the OEM XP thread. :tu:

I think that box just sets a time limited cookie on your hard drive with your user name and password. Just means that you have to enter your details each time you log in without it :)

Try a different browser and/or proxy.

I can't get dabs to load in IE but it's fine in Firefox for example :)

Think we've all done that at some point ;) Not that I would stop anyone advocating using a browser other than IE while Microsoft are playing catchup again :)
