Problems with Google Sign in.... email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 91/100. artemis432 (2142)9 months ago

I've been having problems with gmail sign in. Each time I sign in, it refuses my password and the next page pops up with the security captcha. First it happened with the password I've used since last year. I tried a few times then went to another page and got a new password, same thing happened. I tried to do enter the form for when you think your email has been compromised and it asks ridiculous questions. Like date you first started using your google - how would I remember that - what applications you use and WHEN you started using them. Then five of your labels - so you have to remember the exact filtering labels you have and five of your most emailed addresses. This is my sweepstakes Email mostley, although I also use it to receive Email from family since this is the email I'm on a few times a day. But I rarely ever send out email. And since I don't I have to search for the addresses I do use. Or I type in the name of the recepient.

They make it so difficult. I haven't heard back and its such a pain having to reset my password each time I want to sign on! HAckers suck. As far as I'm concerned they are right above plankton. Obviously they wereen't taught very well by their mom and dad - or too well if their mom and dad are pond scum as well. Or they ignored the ethics their parents tried to instill.

Why don't these terrible people just make up a bunch of addresses themselves if they want to send email from an account? Which is what they did recently from a yahoo account I no longer use but friends were receiving bad email from. I don't know what they're doing with this account, maybe they want to direct any winnings to themselves?

Anyone have any advice, or maybe you've expereienced the same thing? How do you feel about hackers?

It may be our browser/cookies. I have TERRIBLE trouble on helium when using Firefox, but it's fine with IE. Try clearing out your cookies and check that you're allowing Google.com to set a new one. It might help.

now I can't get into my yahoo but have no problem with gmail. This is a site I've had an account with for years. I know I shouldn't but I've kept the same sign in. I just use it to access bookmarks saved with it. I can't get back in because I don't know what b'day I was using - I never use my real one and I usually use the same date for a year or so. I also have no idea of my zip code then!
