Not that for me, but on the laptop, I can't post while using Firefox, but I.E., I can. The desktop 'puter work fine. I'll be glad when we get our new server up.

I've been made aware from a couple members that some people are getting "forbidden" errors when trying to post.

I've emailed admin Patrick about this in detail. When I find something out, I'll pass it on to everyone.

Thanks everyone!

There's some kind of bug going around that screws with your search engines, don't know what else it might be doing.
You might try this and see if it finds anything.

Go to this website, download and run the free malware program http://www.malwarebytes.org/ Delete what it finds, restart and you should be fine.

Internet Explorer User Please Read Below

Microsoft Issuing Emergency Fix for Browser Flaw by the Associated Press 12-16-08 -[/align]> http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2008/12/16/technology/AP-TEC-Internet-Explorer-Security.html?partner=rss&emc=rss - The following excerpts...[/align]
[hr]
"Microsoft is taking the unusual step of issuing an emergency fix for a security hole in its Internet Explorer software that has exposed millions of users [][X(]to having their computers taken over by hackers.[/align]The 'zero-day' vulnerability, which came to light last week, allows criminals to take over victims' machines simply by steering them to infected Web sites; users don't have to download anything for their computers to get infected, which makes the flaw in Internet Explorer's programming code so dangerous. Internet Explorer is the world's most widely used Web browser.
Microsoft said it plans to ship a security update, rated 'critical,' for the browser on Wednesday. People with the Windows Update feature activated on their computers will get the patch automatically"...

I seem to have problems with Firefox on 2 computers. The laptop will NOT let me post AT ALL in Firefox. Forbidden it says. And the curser jumps around in I.E. so bad, that text gets lost and screwed up. IMPOSSIBLE to post here on the laptop. The desktop just started to give me problems Thursday when I tried to post about my Intimidator, and it took 6 posts to get it done, due to character count issues, I believe. Forbidden again. Short posts are working.
