State: open

The normal process works to sign into beta.myfavoriteshow.org using a Primary email, but there is a lot of screen flashing going on here...

Open IE8
1. Go to eyedee.me, log in as a user.
2. Go to beta.myfavoriteshow.org
3. Type in my eyedee.me login
4. Click Next
5. Click Verify
6. Get a pop-up that says:
The site requested you sign in using
Email
my eyedee.me email populates the field
7. I click "sign in"
8. It is signing me in but I see a quick flash of at least two other pop-ups/text before I return to beta.myfavoriteshow.org.
(see more info below)
9. Yay! jbonacci@eyedee.mehas been added to our email list!

Trying again with an account not currently associated with eyedee.me
1. "The site requested you sign in using "
blah blah blah
2. " To verify that you own this address, you must sign in with your provider. This window will be redirected to
https://eyedee.me/browserid/sign_in.html. "
3. I click the "verify" button
4. I get this pop-up from EyeDee.Me:
"Sorry, jabonacci@eyedee.meis not a known user! You can create such a user right now, just pick a password: "
5. Type in a password
6. click Create My Account
7. I get more visual pop-up debris:
A quick view of the verification/verified pop-up
A quick view of the "communicating with the server pop-up"
Another quick view of the verification/verified pop-up
8. AND...back to beta.myfavoriteshow.org

Still need to try IE8 on Win7 32 bit, IE8 on a real desktop (not a VM), and IE9/Win7...
