@MTV: Team, could you please have a look into this issue.

Signing up for the above URL [Barron's login] requires a valid Credit Card Details. I have tried providing sample (test) CC details and is is not accepting. Without providing the CC details, sign-up couldn't be possible.

Thank you.
From what I understand,  Issue 101274  was due to a problem on the Barron's web site that exposed a problem in Chrome. I half suspected the problem I found was similar when I opened this ticket: there was a problem on the Barron's web site that Firefox was somehow able to work around, but Chrome was not.

The point now is moot: whatever the problem was on the Barron's web site, they have fixed it. I am now able to log in successfully to their site with Chrome.

As such, I think this Issue should be closed because there is no longer any way to reproduce the problem, although it would be nice to know what Barron's changed on their web site for future reference.
