I signed in here, and cannot even reach the question I'm supposed to confirm, WHY?

I received an email asking me to confirm my question of the immediate past few minutes. So, I clicked on the hyperlink, and arrived to find a box telling me to "Sign in and try again". Now, it's asking for another question.

And, the same damn thing just repeated itself, with a message box telling me there has been an "Error Uploading Image". I don't have the time to waste going all round Robin Hood's barn time and again. But, I am DAMN sick and tired of having to type in both user name and password EVERY TIME I go to a site where I have always had the password remembered. What does it take to get the thing FIXED?
