I can't access my settings or my inbox. Firefox says it stopped the action because "the website is handling the transfer of data in a way that forbids it getting done" or something to that extend (my Firefox is talking Danish to me, so I had to transliterate, sorry)

It's supposedly a cookie problem on my behalf, but I've tried fixing my cookie settings and nothing changed. Cookies are on, but Gamespot still won't let me load settings/inbox.

I've cleared my Firefox browsing history, reset and re-enabled cookies, cleared stored login info etc.

That sounds like the "page isn't redirecting properly" error, which often is the result of sites thrashing over cookie deprivation. My settings pages and inbox seem to be loading ok, so I could not reproduce the problem at the moment. The issue may have been temporary, or, just guessing, it may have something to do with your region or the domain you were using. If you continue to see the issue it may bear digging deeper, and in that case there will be questions about the cookies you actually have set in your browser, so it might help to familiarize yourself with the Firefox dialogs that let you actually see your cookies. Hopefully it has gone away, but if not just post away.

I've been getting the same problem too, very annoying indeed. I also cleared my browsing history, tried disabling cookies then enabled them but it still won't work :S
