Last week, out of the blue, I had a great difficulty logging on here. PC refused to recognize me, even though it seemed to accept my user name and password. I had to make numerous attempts before I finally got on, without any clue as to what I had done right or done wrong.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Not here (forums.psychcentral.com). When something of the kind has happened to me at other sites it's often been because my browser was somehow set to refuse cookies from those sites.

I've had plenty of difficulty logging in to psychcentral.net to comment on the blogs even though I copy-pasted my password directly from the e-mail and went out of my way to make sure both the site itself and the particular blog were on my "accept cookies" list. I don't even know if the difficulty still persists -- I quit trying a few weeks ago.

(As a mildly amusing aside: when I have Spybot S&D scan my computer, sometimes -- by no means always -- it logs me out of "keep-me-logged-in" sites like PC so that when I come back after the scan I "don't have permission" to access my Subscriptions page until I log back in.)

Thanks, Fool Zero, for your input. Things can get a little crazy around here (pun intended) with all these technical mishaps.

I know I've seen people post this problem before, albeit it awhile ago. With all the types of browsers and software out there, it gets complex. Sometimes it's the settings on the site and not the browser that may override the latter. There's different levels of cookies, like "third party" or something.

Hope FoolZero's idea helps you.
