I have upgraded to 1.0.10 with the patch for security reasons.
I had decided to install 1.0.8 until the bugs were worked out but when I did I still ended up with the same problems.
I looked in the forums and found the following.
www.joomlapolis.com/component/option,com_joomlaboard/Itemid,38/func,view/id,12877/catid,27/limit,6/limitstart,0/
It seems that others have had the same issues I was experiencing so I changed the url path to
innovative-brands.com/corporate/
not
www.innovative-brands.com/corporate...as suggested
I then had the problem of the 404 page after first login. I tried changing the links to seo friendly links and changed the htaccess.txt to htaccess it didn't work, but what seems to be working is leaving htaccess without the .txt and not having the seo friendly links. Now I can login on multiple computers and browsers, mozilla, ie.
As I said before I upgraded my joomla to 1.0.10 to fix the security issues and it seems to not have affected any of the changes and the login seems to be still working well.
Also my security level is at a 2.
Hope this helps anyone who is having the same problems I have been having, and if I have anymore problems I will let you all know...
