Hit Counter Logs My Visits/Can't Comment As Self

    For some odd reason, my site logs my visits as hits when I go to my main page. Furthermore, when I go to reply to a comment, it says I’m not logged in as myself… and then why I try to log in to comment, it won’t let me. The page just freezes on “authorizing”.

    Please note that while all of this is going on, I am still logged in to wordpress.com. Very strange.

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

    How many usernames have you registered here?
    How many blogs are registered to those individual usernames?
    How many of the blogs have “private” visibility? Note that your visits to a private blog are counted.

    Private blogs, which can be viewed only by users chosen by the administrator, now track the page views of all of their users. Traditionally we have omitted the views attributed to a blog’s own users because stats were meant to reflect the activity of the general public. However, this meant that private blogs had no useful stats reports. This change will be especially useful for private blogs that have many users. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2011/08/18/watch-your-traffic-grow-with-sparklines/

    Please try some troubleshooting re: your other problems:
    How are you connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com? The way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers.
