So do I, so I just never check the Forum User box and I am able to log in just fine. Also using Firefox, but 3.0.7.

  Same here....I'm using Firefox 3.0.9.

I WAS able to log into the forums just now using my verizon account name and password.  So, I gues this means the problem is sort of solved.

Well I just tried to log in again and got the "no zipcode" message.  Had to log into my verizon account then move to the forums.

I think the issue comes down to clicking on the Sign In button vs. using the Return or Enter key.  The keys don't work.

Yes, you definitely have to click the sign in button and not just press the Return/Enter key.

BTW, for the moderators out there, the ideal scenario which is missing here is called SSO or single sign-on.  Sign in to a system once and you're authenticated to sign in everywhere.  I know it's hard to implement, but if you can ask the powers that be "forum desperately needs SSO" they might get it.  thanks!

I just ran into this problem for the first time.  How annoying, took me 15 minutes to figure it out.  I see this thread was started three months ago.  Does it really take that long to fix Verizon?  Is anyone out there even listening?  Jesus.

On a separate note, I have been on hold for 50 minutes waiting to get through to someone to fix my media manager.  Unbelievable.
