The new login page is, frankly, a sloppy piece of work. I\'m being polite - my feelings after trying to login and having the web page screw me repeatedly, are much stronger.

The two login methods **are not independent**.

Got that? If you start to login in the top, change your mind and login in the bottom, with a carefully checked account code (which is unnecessarily long), and press the bottom login, the dumb web page asks for your password, ignores the correct account code while erasing it, and puts you back where you started, previous entries erased.

Excpet the only way at this point to get rid of the name part is to close the browser completely, erase the cache and start over. Ghu help you if you make any mistakes at all.

That web guy flunks human interface basics.

Are you trying to login to the site after previously clicking \"log out\" on your account page?
If so, just don\'t logout. I never do as I\'m always popping on and off the site. Saves time next time around.
