    I'm sorry you ran into trouble. We made a few changes. Can you do restart and then try again?

    It does now work...thanks.

    I usually don't worry too much about just checking websites, but doing financial stuff always use VPN or hotspot from phone. I forgot to turn it off and went into the forums and got that message a couple times....thanks for resolving it.

    Hi, I also ran into problems when trying to log in with VPN turned on. It's OK at home, no need for it here, but at work I'm forced to connect through a VPN.

    Jim you should use the VPN (or encrypted hotspot) whenever possible even for “just checking websites”, since a hacker can gain access to all of the data on your laptop, (documents, spreadsheets, photos, etc.) and use the browser cache to gather logins and passwords from any accounts you routinely login to where you have selected “remember my password”. Even if you’re not surfing at the time. A relatively easy hack which can be done on a computer on an open network is even scarier... they can activate the webcam that’s built in to most every laptop and watch (and record) every thing you do and listen using the webcam’s microphone, to conversations.
    People worry about the NSA doing stuff like this but 16 year olds can do it nowadays.
