I've always been a little confused by the way the Geekzone Store is set up. Even though I'm logged in to the site, after I click on the two links it takes to get to the store (Not sure why two are required), I'm not logged in anymore, as evidenced by the "Log-in or Register" links at the top of the page. Of course, if I click on Log-in, after logging in I'm taken to the Home page again, where I start all over! I use Firefox, but I get the same when using IE.

Even though it says I'm not logged in when I go to the Store, I have usually been able to complete my purchases there anyway, until now. Today, when I try to check out, I'm brought to a blank page.

Anyone else getting this? It's doing that on my desktop PC and my notebook, in Firefox and IE. I can get there fine from Handango's web site, but not from the Geekzone Store.

Thaks for any assistance!

Yes, it's strange - I'll ask Handango to remove that. Actually the store is hosted on their server, so the Login or Register message is hardcoded on the template I gave them.

There's no need to login to purchase anything on their store, so that is a little misleading.

As per the white page, check that you have cookies enabled. It seems that their basket software requires a cookie to complete the last step. Perhaps you have a too strict rule on your anti-virus or firewall software, blocking this?
