 * On the other hand this plug in does exactly what I want and blocks bot nets of
   infected PCs and scanners looking for weaknesses on web servers, they seem to
   be using old versions of MS browsers and OSs to do so.
 * Currently all the suspicious behavior I see in my stats comes from IE6 or less
   and Xp sv1 or less.
 * Blocking Them simply makes good sense, if big companies like google are phasing
   out support for old browsers why should we not do the same?
 * I understand your comment but I don’t think it really applies to IE that has 
   never complied to standards any way.

 * It would appear that deleting cookies while it can help is not all of the problem,
   I never did by the way.

 * The safari problem can be worked around, first quit safari, use another browser
   to log in to the admin area, now try safari again, you may need to hold down 
   the shift key to clear the page cache.
 * This will work if you were seeing a corrupted redirect address in the browser
   address bar after trying to log in.

 * I just went up to 1.9 via auto update and its done the same thing (blank admin
   page) as it did for 1.6, on the last one version I did it manually and had no
   problem, I will delete and manually reinstall as last time to see if it clears
   it.

 * Hi Ralf
 * Sorry to take a while to come back to you, I did the a few tests trying to nail
   it down before doing the clean reinstall of the plug in you suggested, if you
   recall the problem began after the automatic update was used in the new version
   of WP 2.5.
 * THe clean instal cured the issue completely and I have not been able to recreate
   it since so it looks like the update and overwriting went wrong, rather than 
   a conflict between plugins as suspected at the beginning.

 * Hi Ralph
 * The original install worked ok at 1.5 but was updated using the new auto-update
   in 2.5, I can try deleting all files and doing a clean install to test for you.
 * Also running is (and I should have said before sorry) are Akismat, Bad Behavior,
   Better Blogroll, Google XML Sitemaps, ShareThis, WassUp, WordPress.com Stats,
   WP-Ban.
 * All the above at the current up to date versions.
 * The problem only showed up after All in one SEO and CryptX up dated and pulling
   there files restored normal operation.
 * Thanks for the help

 * Well never saw a solution so took the path of least resistance and defaulted 
   the folder of the troublesome theme

 * Hi, I am searching for a solution to the same problem, the forum seems littered
   with requests for help but definitive answer as to what the problem is or how
   to fix it has not been given, or I have not found it yet?
