Restricted Sites?

I thought that I would share a few links that i found when researching your problem with netscape and Java chat.

I also wonder what anti virus or software you use, eg Nortons can be a horrible pain in the ass for restricting things that you want to use. I wonder if at some point you got a warning box that asked about allowing a action and clicked deny, if that happened you may have accidentally blocked Java chat from working. Zone alarm uses a red stop sign to show its blocked something also. I would check for denied actions in the anti virus / internet security software you use. Double check that your pop up blocker is not on. I hope that may help you because I can guess your pretty frustrated.

Thorn, I wonder if you have a corrupt install of windows on your machine. I bet a reinstall will fix some of those issues.

That might be a solution to the Help Center problem, though I think it's more likely that an update caused this problem. The other one, though, happens on 3 different machines using 2 different versions of IE.

BTW, interesting call on sidhewolf's problem. One of my machines is using the free security software from my ISP, a Zone Alarm clone I believe. Even with the firewall turned off it can prevent certain actions from happening.

Hello Thorne~

Zone Alarm has it's positives but it also has it's big negatives too. I imagine a clone could do pretty much the same things? We haven't downloaded, nor do we use the free security software from our ISP. Of course it's possible it's there unbeknownst to us? But it's not affecting anything but IE in this case hmmmmm <scratching head>.

Thorne, maybe You could try Opera, and see if it helps You also?

If you've looked at everything else, perhaps the problem is embedded in your router itself. They all normally have their own firewalls that could be causing some sort of interference.

Hello Widget <waves>~

We run Norton here. It is a pain sometimes. I don't think I clicked anything I didn't fully read <G>, I all too well Know not to do that <winks>, by having done it in the past of course lol.

You are absolutely right, I was pretty frustrated until I got things to work this morning <smiles>. Of course by then I had to go to work, and had no Time to spend talking. But I did get to say hello to a few this moring, and I will go back.

Thank You Widget for trying to help....I Really appreciate it.
