How do you knwo you have to use a proxy? The page only works when you are using a proxy? Is so you are most likly banned. Just change your IP address is you are banned.
Also dont put this in the bugs section next time.
To change your IP address go to your desktop, right click on My Network Places and select Properties. From there right click on your internet connect and click properties. Click on "Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)" Then select Properties again. Now fill the circle that says "Use the following IP Address"
Now on the bottom right of the screen click start, and click run. Type "cmd" (without the quotes). Now type "ipconfig/all" Look at your IP Addess and type that into the IP address in the TCP/IP Properties window. Increase the last digit by 1. Now click somewhere on the subnet mask and numbers will appear. Keep them! Now click on the Default Gateway. You can find this in the start>run>ipconfig/all as well. Enter it in and then click ok. If it didnt work try changing the last digit again, +1.
Well I can login here fine but staying logged in is the problem. I've read the forums but that didn't help. In firefox I changed my connection setting to use direct connection and that worked for a while. The only way I can get in is to use auto-detect proxy setting for this network option. So what can I do to stay logged in.
