Is anyone else having clickbank login problems lately? When I go to http://clickbank.com/login, I get a blank page. And when I try to log in to clickbank.com, my username/password combo doesn't work... If anyone has a clickbank account, would you please try to log in let me know if it's just me?

Thanks.
 
Bah, I forgot to update this thread a while back. I figured out the problem, it was SpyBot... SpyBot automatically adds info not only to your IE block list, but also to your hosts file. The hosts file also acts as a "block" list, but it can work across multiple browsers. Why SpyBot thinks Clickbank is spyware threat, I have no idea, but you can edit your hosts file here and remove clickbank from that list (granted you have windows installed on the C drive)

Code:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\

Just right-click on your hosts file and select Open With.. and open it with Notepad. You can add a # symbol in front of any site that you want to UNblock. In fact, you can safely delete everything in that file, except for the following lines of text:

Code:
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
#
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
#
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
#
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
#
# For example:
#
#      102.54.94.97     rhino.acme.com          # source server
#       38.25.63.10     x.acme.com              # x client host
127.0.0.1 localhost

This is what the default hosts file that is installed with Windows XP looks like. All you need is the text above. Granted, this will prevent other bad sites that were listed from being blocked, but if you're a smart browser you won't really need to rely on a hosts file anyway ;)

WARNING: Be sure to inspect YOUR hosts file for any other IP info that might be of serious importance to your current computer system. Use the above info at your own risk! If in doubt, just # out the clickbank info only.
