There is no nation known as "land_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland _oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_oland_lizardmen".

I have a nation on my list that appears to be a combo of "Land of Those Beneath" and "LizardMen". The pass is saved by Windows, and goes on for a very long time. I assume that it is the pass that I use repeated quite a few times. Login with the nation and you get the above message. Deleting the account doesn't work. Windows asks if you are sure, you say yes, and it's still there. This is hardly urgent, but it is a little annoying.

this has nothing to do with nationstates, only with windows ... I wouldn't know how to fix it though

I know that it's probably not NS's fault, but there are a bunch of friendly and helpful people here.

I must say I've never heard of a bug like this. Which version of Internet Explorer are you using? (I myself don't use Windows or IE, so I may be of limited use)

You could perhaps try clearing the stored form data, and see if that fixes it. I think its somewhere in Tools>Options.

6.0

But then I would have to copy down all of my umpteen nations!

I haven't used Internet Explorer for some time, but here's my 2 cents:

In the menu: Tools/Internet Options, the Content tab, press on the button "Auto Complete", and then "Clear Passwords" & "Clear forms", but this will delete all your passwords...

Btw, i'm one of LP's umpteen nations.

I have too many passwords, though. I'm gonna try deleting the passes for lizardmen and lotb and see if that helps.
