I have 4 people in my household who would like to sign up for accounts here, but we are all using the same computer.
is this a problem?

I should have mentioned that in my first post.
YES we all have different email addresses, we just share the same PC, thus we all have the same IP address...

some sites only allow one user per computer.I hope that does not happen here,it will cause problems for some users with one login.
the problem is that there are many house hold with multiple users.
also I use one of the computers in a community center I volunteer at.there are many users on these computers.

I doubt this sites will check IP address'es
For multi use Automatic login needs to be off
Only way round this is to install multiple operating systems, best if each on it's own drive, slower if using partitions (the is a free tool for windows) also can boot via USB (but tricky)

all you need is different e-mail addys, I knew someone here with 3 family members playing and that is all they had to do

Perhaps you forgot about multiple user accounts? ;o)

Even in a single user account you can do it with multiple browsers.

And even if it's the same user account with everyone using the same browser then, at least if it's Firefox, everyone can have independent browser profiles.

If anyone's interested, independent browser profiles also allow you to run two or more instances of Firefox at the same time.
