Why the pop up sign up page?

You can always try a program like "Dashlane" which stores log-on information, encrypted on your computer and provides for near automatic log-on to any site. It also generates strong passwords that you don't have to worry about remembering. The basic program is free, with add-ons if you so choose.

wow! If I read that right, it sounds like that program generates passwords that you don't know. It doesn't do that, right?

No it doesn't do that. It generates passwords that you don't have to remember. There is a master password for Dashlane that opens to displays all the sites you use it to access and will display the password for each, if you go there. You rarely do though because when you click on a site like TBN, it pops up with an offer to log you in. One click and done. All the encrypted passwords are stored on your drive, not in the cloud or off-site and are accessible to no one without your master pass word.

The very strong passwords it generates go way beyond something you might make up yourself. They are random numbers and letters, caps and not.

Cool! Thx for clarifying. :thumbsup:

If using Firefox, you can make an exception to allow FF to store cookies for TBN:

In case you are using "Clear history when Firefox closes":

• do not clear Cookies
• do not clear Site Preferences

Clearing cookies will remove all specified (selected) cookies including cookies that have an allow exception.

• Tools > Options > Privacy: History: [X] Clear history when Firefox closes > Settings
• https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Clear+Recent+History

Note that clearing "Site Preferences" clears all exceptions for cookies, images, pop-up windows, software installation, and passwords.
Let all cookies expire when you close Firefox.

• Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Keep until": "I close Firefox"

Make an Allow exception for the ones that you want to keep.

• Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Exceptions"
• Add tractorbynet.com to the exception "Allow" list

Figured out what made this all so easy for me in Firefox: 'tools'/'options'/'security'__ [] 'remember passwords for sites' check-box. (FF for Win or for Linux)

This works when otherwise set to 'delete cookies/history when closing FF', and doesn't demand logging back in when switching pages. No apps, gadgets, or 'exceptions' to list, and good for all sites I visit regularly (TBN, PM, MidwayUSA, pic host, etc), and when I go to any of them from an opened email. Cookies remain during each 'session', and they go away when closing, but FF does remember my site log-ins when 're-launching' it.

All that said, when bookmarking sites (TBN homepage, etc) it's good to do so after logging in. My guess is that FF may use the check box I mentioned in par 1 to get around the cookie/history dump since that's apparently not where passwords are saved anyway.

Same thing happens to me on my phone but not my iPad

Have you tried or are you using the APP?
