 * Hello! I have a site wp blog that loads just fine, but I cannot log in to. I 
   have another wp blog that is just fine, I can load it AND log in to it. They 
   are both hosted by godaddy.
 * The one that I can’t login to is [http://www.carolaskan.com](http://www.carolaskan.com)
   
   The one that works just fine is [http://www.hellifino.com](http://www.hellifino.com)
 * I have not changes any admin settings (or any settings for that matter) on either
   site in weeks. The one that i can’t login to was just fine 12 hours ago.
 * I get “The connection was reset. The connection to the server was reset while
   the page was loading.” from Firefox and “Internet Explorer cannot display the
   webpage” from Internet explorer when I try and login.
 * Any ideas?

 * The first one shows up fine for me as does the login page. Have you tried another
   browser, cleared your cache and checked with GoDaddy?

 * I get the error when I try and log in to [http://www.carolaskan.com](http://www.carolaskan.com).
   Yes, the log in page shows up, but when I try and log in from 2 different PC’s
   both with different IP’s I get the error messages as stated in my first post 
   from both Firefox and IE. i.e. I get “The connection was reset. The connection
   to the server was reset while the page was loading.” from Firefox and “Internet
   Explorer cannot display the webpage” from Internet explorer when I try and login.
 * My other wp blog that is hosted with godaddy does not have this issue.
 * I have cleared my cache.

 * As suggested by godaddy: I just tried disabling all my plugins (by renaming the
   plugins directory via ftp and creating a new empty plugins folder) and that did
   not fix it.

 * I doubt this is a WP problem. Have you tried restarting your modem/router? Have
   you tried on another ISP connection – perhaps a cell phone just to check?

 * Yes, I have tried on 2 different IP’s, one is my tethered cell phone, the other
   is my local ISP. I have ‘restarted’ them both.
 * One godaddy hosted wp lets me login to it, the other does not.

 * I am having the same problem. I cannot log into admin on any of the 4 sites I
   have. I can access the site as a visitor.
    I get the login page but it will not
   login. I use Safari as my browser and have also used Firefox. Still nothing. 
   I noticed this problem about 2 hours ago
