Same here, I couldn't log in on PC, managed it on my phone easy enough after I accepted a security cookie or something like that.

As for the tab, similar happened a few years ago and I just blocked it with an add blocker app and it worked. When I get time I will have a look on PC and have a look to see if it can be blocked again.

Just tested it, "Adblock" gets rid of it, same as last time this issue cropped up years ago. The last time though the tab was a pain as it would always open up and block the bottom part of the page you was reading. You would close it down, but it would pop open again a minute or two later.

no I'm not a tiny bit paranoid, I like to know why things happen, for all we know it could be spyware, adware or a virus, I've already said Karlos fixed the logging in issue quickly, we are all different mate just accept that, happy new year.

Yes I have, there doesn't seem to be an option to clear it after you have made your choice, that's why I was a bit suspicious, I'm on a Mac and have gone back to using Safari now and its not there at all, what have you found ?

yep found its a great advantage having the choice of what cookies to have or have not and have no problem what so ever if a tiny tab remains
