   Same message Zyama gets.

 * OK! I think it’s a Firefox problem. I can log in with IE, but not with Firefox
   3.0.1. Try that, Zyama.

 * Great. I really dislike IE. Maybe I can roll my Firefox back to 3.0.

 * hi,
 * i had the same problem since i tested all the wp 2.6 betas with firefox 3.
    i
   searched a lot an i installed firefox again, but nothing helped me.
 * the solution in my case was verry simple!
 * i cleaned all cookies in firefox and then i noticed, if i go to the adminpanel
   with the login link in the frontend of the blog, i have no problems with login.
 * i always go to the dashboard with a direct bookmark in firefox that was [http://myweblog.tld](http://myweblog.tld)
   and my solution was, that i write www. before it. so the link in the bookmarks
   in firefox was now http://**www.**myweblog.tld and now i have no problems anymore.
 * if you look at the saved cookies in firefox, they all have www. before, and so
   i give a try to make the same in the bookmark link and it works.

 * Both with a clean, new install, and with an upgrade: K2 theme’s sidebar manager
   is not working. Consider it before you do an upgrade.

 * There must be a problem with the new cookie system they intoduced in v2.6.
    And
   you seem to be unable to login if your browser still has cookies from the previous
   version. That’s why you manage to login when you
    1. change a browser
    2. clean cookies
    3. add www. prefix if you didn’t use it.
 * I guess there should be 2.6.1 pretty soon 😉
