TWS can't login - help?

    When I try to login through either the desktop or web TWS it gets stuck on me. I enter my name and pass and click login, and then every 10 seconds the "Login in Progress" window pops up for a millisecond and disappears again. Nothing else happens and this can go on for hours.

    I reinstalled both java and TWS, and tried using the old version but nothing helps. I can access my account normally (ie. for account management online), just not through the TWS.

    I looked through yesterday's successful log file versus today's unsuccessful files and found some differences:

    After JTS-AuthDispatcher-4 receives "NS_BACKUP_HOST (ignored)", the two logs begin to differ. The successful log goes on to receive several other files through the AuthDispatcher-4. The unsuccessful log, after the NS_BACKUP_HOST is received, shows the following lines:
    JTS-Listener-3: Socket was closed by peer
    JTS-Listener-3: Socket was closed by peer
    JTS-Listener-3: Terminating
    JTS-Fuse-5: The socket has been declared broken
    JTS-Fuse-5:m_disconnectTime (long number here)
    JTS-Fuse-5: Disconnecting
    JTS-Fuse-5: range = 10000 random: 4691 m_nextConnectTime: (Long number here as well)
    JTS-AuthDispatcher-4: Terminating

    Then immediately after this line, the sequence from JTS-Login-7 starts up again and it loops.

    I'm certainly no programming expert so hopefully this means more to someone who is. Solutions?
