Default Help with log on!

I've been a member for years, but something strange has happened. When I try to log on, I get blocked with the message "error 1005", and I get blocked. This is happening eight out of ten times when trying to log on, and I cannot correct this. I could use some advice on how to correct this because I lot on a lot of times, but this is making all this effort a pain in the ass1

Disable your VPN. Some VPNs are blocked. This is not a cookie issue, so clearing cookies will not resolve the issue, unless it's incidental.
