    logging on to HBC from different computers

    Why is it when I try to log onto HBC from other computers, I have to sign on about 5 different times before it lets me into the site?

    It probably has more to do with the settings on that paticular computer more then the site. Some computer settings or antivirus will wipe the cookies as they are being created causing this to hapen.

    thanks Marc

    it only happens when I sign onto HBC - I will have to check settings from my computer compared to the others in the house

    I have 5 computers in this house and it amazes me that it takes 15 minutes or more to sign on to HBC from any of the other 4 in my house other than my own personal computer - I am the one who set up the computers in this house and all the settings are done the same - so it has to be something with HBC as I can log in other sites I am a member of without any trouble from any of my computers as well as friends computers

    ok so you have 5 computers in your house. Are they all hard wired into your router or are they wireless. What port is your computer plugged into? If you're hard wired in and the others are either wireless or after port one that could be why they are slower to log in.

    the one I am on right now is Peter's computer and his is hard wired and the other 4 run off the router from his computer (wireless) meaning my computer is on a wireless connection and mine is the one I use 99.9% of the time - trying to log in from Peter's computer took me 15 minutes and from my kids computer takes at least 5 tries and from my laptop well I just end up getting frustrated with that one and with my mom's laptop it takes about 5 tries

    I log onto HBC form my home computer, my office computer, the computer at my other office, my parents computer and I've done it from internet cafes, too.

    I never have had any problems that you are describing, so I suspect that there is some issues with your computers,and not HBC.

    you may need to do a spyware sweep on your other comps. that may speed things up a bit. Are you using the same virus software on all the comps or does your personal one have something different
