What browser are you using?
I tried with Chrome and it seemed to work OK for me.

OK, I’ve reported this issue to our technical contact, and he’s looked
into it and determined that there was a theming change (something in the
CSS or javascript) that seems to have broken the click.
We’re bringing in the right people to fix it - no ETA yet, but hopefully
it’ll be soon.
In the interim, I’m going to see about putting a forum-wide announcement
up that lets people know they can work around the issue by pressing enter
after entering their password.
**Pressing the Enter key **instead of selecting the login block with your mouse does work. The login selection seems to send off into outer space and has had the very same problem before. Hopefully it will get fixed again.

I’ve observed that as well and have reported it. It seems the patch that
was applied has mitigated the issue to a great extent, but hasn’t
completely taken care of it.

It doesn’t even have any impact on folks like you DD who use NNTP

sure it does…if folks can’t log in they can’t get help, and they go away!
if enough go away i have to switch to a disto still being made.
it was precisely that (folks going away) that caused me to have to
switch from OS/2 to Red Hat (which, i guess the only reasons i left
there was when Fedora cranked up it was kinda flaky…and for YaST)
