Have always had to login exactly twice to Lloyds site before I get in - I assume
it is some sort of cookie problem, but today I cannot get in at all after
multiple attempts. The site wants:
1 Login/password
2 security data

After entering both sets of details, it was passing me back to beginning, and
repeating the process let me in, but now it doesn't at all - I assume the banks
had some 'fall back' code for when there were problems with cookies, and they
have now changed it ?

Anyhow, this is not just Lloyds, I have a similar problem at barclaycard.co.uk
and have had it as other sites too.

My cookies have the default setting of 'allow all' - cookies for other sites
seem to work fine

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Got to Lloyds.co.uk or barclard.co.uk
2. login
3. login fails

Actual Results:  
returned to login page

Expected Results:  
To login

Obviously without an account on the sites you will NOT be able to test this - as
this is a security issue with the banks, I would suggest that someone contacts
the banks and liases with their wensite teams to isolate the problems.

The logins work fine with NetScape "0.9.6 based on Firfox 1.0"

Lloyds has always worked fine for me on the business banking side.

I just tried clearing my cache and this has cleared the problem !!!
Hum...
Thanks Dave for 'making' me question this - but there was obviously something
screwy in there - we will probably never know !

I'm marking this as fixed - but there's a bug in there somewhere...

Nothing was fixed in the mozilla code, fixing resolution --> wfm
