Hi guys I got a strange problem with my pc.
When I try and connect via IE it takes a few seconds to find my homepage but then a warning box appears that says google require a login and username!!!!
It does not happen all the time as I'm online now and asking this question.
I was wandering if anyone knew what that is all about.
It only started about 2 days ago.

I'm running 32bit vista home premium.

Thanks in advance

Probably your home page address is pointing to a google page where login is required (eg google groups). Check what's in the address bar. Change your home page to www.google.com (or indeed any other web-page other than a google one) and see if it still happens. If it doesn't it must have been caused by your google home page pointing to a private area that needs a login.
