Funny :-) I am just online with my wife's MacBook Pro, both Safari and Firefox work without problem.

I am exclusively using MacBpro with OSX 10.5 and now 10.6 ... both Safari and Firefox are working fine ...
From time to time there are hickups with the portal login ... (browser cookie cache and portal mismatch/expiry)

A COMPLETE CACHE CLEAR / BROWSER RESET was always a cure (sometimes you have to restart your browser after that)
Then do not forget to tick the remember me option on the login page :)

Hey Guys,

... you should not play around with Macs book. It is the only one he has and as double Grandpa he needs it to read the good-night stories for the little ones :mrgreen:

So give it back to Mac and start to use an adult machi :mrgreen: :mrgreen: ne

Hi there

I have had lots of problems logging on to the club site since I moved over to a Mac.

The only thing that works for me is when it boots me out, close down that page, then clear history and then completely clear the cache (via preferences on safari). This will usually allow me back in for another chunk of time until I get booted out again.

Have to say that using a Dell at work, and I never have the same problems.

:mock: first Jeeps against the world ... now Macs against the M$ empire :wahaha:
My dear Mac users ... displaying/rendering/managing web pages is NO OSX issue !
Safari : I am at Version 4.0.5 (6531.22.7)
Firefox : I am at Version 3.6.3
NO PROBLEMS AT ALL ... (except for cookie based problems like one incidentin 3 weeks)

What could cause problems is : THE big E! proxy, The big E! modem/router at home, the dhcp server and the dhcp lease time on the router you are using ... BECAUSE a NEW LOCAL(!) IP already causes a cookie mismatch already => logout
