Proxy Server HELP

[trudi]

Please if someone can help me I'd really appreciate it.

Here is the situation:
In order to access the research tools from my university we have to be set up on their proxy server. I have all of the settings right and not 30 minutes ago everything was fine. Everytime I visit the libarary site it pops up a little login box, login, everything is fine.

For some reason now when I go to the web site I don't get any little login box. It feels almost as if I have some type of cookie on my computer telling the proxy that I'm "OK" but when I try to actually access any of the resources, it says "You aren't in our computer system or you aren't logged into the proxy server."

So I know very little about these things. I tried restarting the computer, resetting the Proxy Server settings, clearing cookies. None of this worked so I'm sure that I am missing something stupid here. Does anyone know how I can get this to start giving me the little login box again or whatever I need to make this stupid thing work?

Well first thing would be to hit Refresh.

Are you logging into the computer when its not working?

Are you able to get to the rest of the internet when this happens? Does anyone else have this problem?

Are you using Internet Explorer? What OS are you using?

Might check with others.. could be a known issue with their network.
