ottawa citizen login page - http://epaper.ottawacitizen.com/epaper/viewer.aspx - hangs after the password is entered - if that pane is closed & a specific news page is clicked the login reappears with the same problem. The chrome login shows links to facebook, google,etc with firefox but although the FF page states one can sign in with another account none of the links are displayed.
