  Hello, my name is Simon Schleicher. I have a blog that runs on your official wordpress server (that means it is http://www.myblogname.wordpress.com) …. i noticed something strange. whenever i want to log in to my account, the first attempt fails -> a new window opens and i have to retype the password and account name again. the strange thing is that it happens even if both terms were written correctly!! are you sure that someone isn’t re-routing/mirroring your login site???

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

  Hi Simon,

  That’s very odd. What is the URL of the site where you initially enter your login credentials? Additionally, what browser and operating system are you using?

  Thanks!

  Thanks Simon.

  I can’t duplicate this using Safari 6.0.5 on OSX 10.8.4. Can you disable any extensions (via the Safari->Preferences->Extensions menu) as well as empty your cache, then try again?

  I appreciate your patience!

  a deep cleaning of my cache seems to have solved the problem, thanks!
