    I have two accounts with two different emails to help differentiate my roles. I am trying to comment using Account A, but every time I hit the comment button I get redirected to a page that says

    “Are you [username for Account B]?

    You are being asked to login because [email for Account B] is used by an account you are not logged into now.”

    I have checked multiple times, I am definitely logged in as Account A when I hit the comment button. This is a problem across multiple blogs.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Do you have your computer set up so it automatically logs you in? If so get rid of that settings. Do you clear your browser cache and cookies when you log out of one username account before your log into WordPress.com on the other account? http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050
    Note: There is a “change” link you can click when leaving a comment so your can change the username account you are leaving the comment from.

    I had tried clearing my history cache, but I hadn’t tried deleting the wordpress cookies individually. That seems to have fixed the problem, thank you!

    That’s good to hear. You’re welcome and best wishes with your blog.
