can no longer log-in through google/firefox plug-in

[shambolic]

hi first post on here, nice to meet you all.
I am having a problem with my google mail toolbar plug-in. i have been using it to access my sky mail ever since sky went over to google but yesterday it stopped working. I can still access my google mail account through it but the sky account sends me to a log in page and then if I put my password etc. in it goes to:
Proxy Error
The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server.
The proxy server could not handle the request GET /amserver/SSORedirect/metaAlias/sky.

Reason: Error reading from remote server

IBM_HTTP_Server Server at id.sky.com Port 80
I can still access mail through the sky.com site
anyone else having these problems. Have sky changed something?

i assume this is the toolbar for FF? if so, i guess its an issue regarding the toolbar itself if you can get in to your email via the portal...

thing is it has been working ever since we went over to google and is working with my google account still. anyway I shall check it and try to reinstall

I definitely think they have added another layer to the access. I never used to get a login page. Anyone confirm this?

On Gmail I get the login page ever so often and now there appears to be this bar that loads before I can get to my mail, that never used to be there before.

I think there has definately been a change made on the Google end of the system as I'm getting the "bar" too. There was also an issue with FF access the webmail at one point during the week but that was supposedly resolved so I'm guessing the guys at G are making changes.

Are you talking about accessing Sky mail here because if so I use Firefox got a load of errors during the week.

Yep thats the one, only impacted FF users for some reason.

Very odd, but at least it was sorted fairly sharpish.
