Something happened with their cookie process; delete you Facebook cookies and log back in. All will be well. (I just did this after about 30 seconds frantic clicking; I'm in a healthcare-issue DISCUSSION, and it's INTERESTING, and I don't want to miss anything...or let trolls shout us down.)

I can get in now. Didn't need to delete any cookies either. I was afriad that my employer had blocked FB, but all is good (for today).

I can get in. I had to delete my Facebook cookies first.

Didn't need to delete any cookies either.

So not everyone needs to toss their cookies to reconnect with their friends.

It helps sometimes though.

A minor rant. Why the fuck won't people who set up security systems understand basic human behavior. My Mom's bank has set up a new security protocol. You must have three of those stupid back up questions and answer set up, and you have to answer them randomly. So my Mom has the the three question and the answers to them on a postit note attached to her monitor. And I know the security people probably think of this as stupid user behavior. But really it is stupid security system designer behavior. No one is going to fucking remember three questions for your system plus a pin number and password, plus similar requirements for all their other things. A sophisticated user may use something like password vault, but I guarantee you that writing down the pain in the ass hurdles you have to jump over to get to their bank account is what the vast majority of their customers will do.

Oh, I know, TB. At my law firm I had 5 different passwords, and they were all the same. The IT guy said "oh, that's not safe" I said "I'm not going to remember five passwords. Either they are all the same, or I write them down. You tell me which is less secure" In an office, writing stuff down is much less secure.

At least your Mom probably has answers for many of them, since I find that often half relate to your spouse or children. I'm single with no pets--very few even make sense for me. Also, favorite novel, movie, etc.? That changes all the time.

My password for questions like that? Password.

Oh my, here is me jumping on that bandwagon! The work credit card requires you to change the password once a month. I typically access the site once a month. So every time I access it, I need to change my password. Ugg.

Yes! Of course, favorite sports team is one of the questions. Not much of a secret there from co-workers. Maybe some outside hack, sure. But ya, CRAZY!

Those are the ones that bug me the most - the straight factuals I still have to remember if I abbreviated or used a long full name or something, but the subjective questions there's just no way in hell.
