icloud.com sign-in error message

My MobileMe account is converted to an iCloud account and works fine on my iOS 5 devices (iPad 2 and iPhone 4). However, I am unable to sing-in to my account at icloud.com. I get an error message that reads, "Connection Error: iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server." Any ideas??

If you have anything that blocks important cookies on your computer (ad blockers and/or privacy extensions), disable it temporarily and then you should be able to access your iCloud from the computer..


common ad blockers:

-Ghostery (Firefox, Chrome, Opera, Safari, IE) -Flashblock (Firefox, Chrome)

-PeerBlock (I believe it's universal) -Disconnect (Chrome, Firefox, Opera Safari)

-Adblock Plus (Firefix, Chrome, Opera, IE, Safari) -DoNotTrackMe (Firefox, IE, Chrome, Safari)

-BluHell Firewall (Firefox)

-any HTTP anywhere (If you know what this is)

-NoScript (Firefox)

-ScriptSafe (Chrome)
