Problem

You enter your username and password and click ‘Sign In’ but nothing happens and you are brought back to a blank login screen.

Cause

The website issues a “browser cookie”, which is a small chunk of information needed by the website during the sign-in process, and that cookie is being blocked by the browser on your computer (most likely Internet Explorer).
