  I just created a 2nd blog thinking I might be able to use it as a “backdoor” entry into my primary blog. No luck. I have full access to all features of the 2nd blog, but still can’t access the stats, posting, etc. features of the primary blog. Very frsutrating!

  I have responded to your questions in the support ticket. The problem persists for me and others. Today is the 7th day since this problem just appeared out of nowhere. It’s something worpress has done.

  Support asked me to install another browser. I chose Firefox. Now, wordpress works perfectly with Firefox. It’s kind of bothersome to have to work with two browsers, but I’m glad to have a solution.

  Out of curiosity, what browser and browser version where you using?

  There are multiple reports of problems with IE8. Try upgrading.

  Ok, go back to the login screen in IE8 and then set the browser to compatibility view as explained here and give it a try. IE8 has a personality disorder and about half the time doesn’t know who it really is.

  Thanks for the suggestion; however, it just tried that and it didn’t help. Same problem with IE8. I guess I’ll just have to live with two different browsers.
