i don't know anything about tablets, but Chrome has a Settings feature which allows you to enter the site you wish to open automatically, or the last site visited, if you ever get in. use the little = marks at the top right corner of the google page.

best wishes~
Gus

I've always/only been using Chrome and have no problem so it sounds like a setting on your end or the tablet, etc. When you say you cannot log in, what do you mean/what happens? Do you get a log in screen or not even that far? Do you have any trouble with any other sites similar to this one (message boards)? Have you changed any settings, tried turning off and turning on, made sure you logged out and cleared cookies, etc. and that your tablet has enough extra space. Are you sure Microsoft/Explorer isn't getting in Chrome's way, being obnoxious about letting it be in charge?

Perna,

it is a new Android tablet in my clueless hands. I doubt an Android tablet would let IE rule. What happens is this -

- I enter my password and get a greetings, guest! Page.

Sounds like some setting either in Chrome or on the tablet is not saving cookies for this website, or some other privacy setting on it is set to "High." I don't have an Android tablet handy to be able to troubleshoot exactly where that setting might be, so maybe someone who has one can help us out here...

I used to not be able to log in with anything, but I just had to click on a few links, and I was able to log in with anything that I wanted to. I can log in at school on Chrome, even, and at school, most sites that have anything to do with mental health is blocked (not this one, thank God).
As for changing settings on a tablet, I had to turn off my Bluetooth to be able to access this site.

I didn't touch anything, but the problem resolved itself. Now I can't log in from the Explorer, but that is ok.

Gk figure...
