Can't view some sites.
Edited on Sun Aug-07-05 07:39 PM by wakemeupwhenitsover
Everyone was over at GD having a gay old time at this site: http://www.little-planet.net/bush/1.swf. When I clicked on it I got a notice saying "object has been blocked". I wasn't that interested in viewing the site so just ignored it. Next, I get an email w/an attachment that I know is safe. When I try to open it up, I get the same message. Now, I'm trying to look at a restaurants site & I click on the menu & I get the same danged message.

So I tried opening IE. Now I'm getting pretty much the same message You are not authorized to view this page
You might not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials you supplied.


So, it happens on IE & Netscape -my primary browser. I'm thinking the only thing it could be is my firewall which is zone alarm pro. I've screwed around with it for quite a while & still can't figure it out. Any suggestions? I don't mind not being able to play the game everyone else was, I don't mind not being able to open the attachment, but damnit, I want to see that menu! :)

best

You might have cookies blocked and/or the site cannot determine which browser your using. Can you allow the firewall to let the site determine which browser you are using?
