  (2) Exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you aren’t sure click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  Thanks for taking the time to reply in such detail. I have tried clearing cookies, cache etc, have tried disabling everything I could think to disable. I will try all the other links you kindly provided shortly.

  Ok, so I tried those things, thanks again for taking the time. Unfortunately, no joy. Went and used another computer to log in and nothing is happening on there either. So I suspect it is a problem with WordPress itself, not the computer – anybody know how to actually contact WordPress?

  Have decided just to use Weebly. So much easier, clicking and dragging everything into place and published first time. So, thanks anyway.
