Help Logging in to Department Intranet/Course websites

If you are using Internet Explorer in Windows, enter your username as "netid@iastate.edu". If you are having trouble logging in from a computer that is not part of the Iowa State domain (i.e., your personal computer at home), you may need to change the security settings on your computer. To do this, download this fix and save it to your desktop. After you extract it (right click -> extract) double click the file and select yes when prompted to update the registry. After this is complete, you will need to reboot your computer.
