[edit] VP not logging in

I've been approved to use VP but when I tried to log in, nothing happens. Details as follow:

  • When I execute the program, the user name shows as my IP address and login grey-out. I click Ch, enter my user name and pwd and click login... this time, the verify button is grey-out and then nothing happens.
  • OS: Windows XP SP2, IE 6 SP2

It's been awhile but I am still unable to use VP.--Cahk (talk) 20:42, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
I had the exact same problem but I was able to workaround it with the following steps:
  • Close VP.
  • Open Internet Explorer (I am normally a Firefox user) and log in to Wikipedia with that. Make sure to click "Remember me"
  • Leave IE open, and re-open VP.
  • It should have your username, and you won't even have to click Ch. Just click Verify and you are good.
Hopefully that will work for you... --Jaysweet (talk) 20:46, 25 April 2008 (UTC)
Cool! It worked for the first time since I was approved a month ago.--Cahk (talk) 10:36, 26 April 2008 (UTC)
Ive got the same problem as above (I turn on VP and it jumps to the blue window, I click on Verify Authorization but nothing happens), and Ive tried the above but still nothing happens Fattyjwoods (Push my button) 23:47, 10 May 2008 (UTC)
Same here. I've given up on VP. - zachinthebox (Talk) 14:24, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I have the same problem, It comes up with my IP, when I change it I lose the verify button. I've tried the IE solution but it does the same thing when I am logges into IE. PiTalk - Contribs 12:38, 9 June 2008 (UTC)
I have found a solution to the VP problem: Twinkle. VP has been broken (for multiple users) for almost 2 and a half months with not a peep from the VP Team. My suggestion is to use another program. - zachinthebox (Talk) 19:22, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Installing VandalProof

Hi. I'm currently using Ubuntu 8.04 LTS (Linux), however, I'm having problems installing the program. I have clicked the download link provided (directs to a .zip file), extracted it (with several .ddl and one .exe file). However, how is this going to work in Linux? (I have tried to using Wine Emulator -- doesn't work) Thanks. Prowikipedians (talk) 12:31, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
