attempting to login to web2py admin using IE - login fails.  - works fine on Mozilla Firefox

http://127.0.0.1:8000/admin/default/index?send=/default/design/welcome

Security settings for intranet are set low in IE...

I also can't login as a user (parts of my website require user login) on my deployed site using I.E.  I'm wondering if there is a setting in I.E.??? Again Firefox works fine.

Would appreciate any insights and I apologize in advance if this is a stupid question unrelated to web2py but the fact that everything works fine in Firefox but not I.E. v.9 is infuriating?

Thanks much in advance.
Bill

I have the same issue recently with Chrome. You just have to change URL from 127.0.0.1 to localhost ...

Does it ask you for the admin password?

If cookies are disabled in the browser login will fail.

Yes it does ask for my admin password but it just reloads the page with the same login screen. 

My browser has been set to accept any cookies and it still gives me the same response.
