Yes, I have them enabled.

Yes, I get sent to "My" page. From there I don't know how to navigate to the bug tracker page other than by using the direct link: 

http://sourceforge.net/bugs/?group_id=5470

But something different happens tonight when I put https instead of http: I am able to successfully be recognized as being logged in on the bug tracker page (there isn't a message telling me to log in first) BUT when I submit the bug, it tells me that anonymous submissions are not allowed. :-(  I was able to file a report to sourceforge on an page with nearly identical layout. And on this page, it took the report. I wonder if I have to be recognized as a group member of the python project....

I tried setting the agent to Internet Explorer (but didn't actually try internet explorer) and that didn't work.

I'll let you know if I am ever successful with this.

Thanks for the tips,
