If you're accessing SalesBook from behind a firewall, proxy, or anti-virus program, temporarily disable the program and try signing in to your SalesBook account. If disabling this program resolves the problem, we suggest consulting the program's online support center for assistance on how to configure it in a way that will still allow you to access Google Accounts.

Note: if you're using a computer while at work, the problem may be related to your computer's corporate security settings. Check with your system administrator.
