My PC either won't make the diary page available or the Avast antivirus says you are blocked. Most of the time. The Forum side has no problem. I am just a marginal beekeeper and a technological moron so I am not throwing stones. Do what you will with the information.

Thanks. I'm running Clam AV on the server right now. We'll see what turns up.

... Nothing found.

My machines have no difficulties and test with several different browsers.

I suggest you scan your machine with Malwarebytes.

The diary page shows up fine for me. It must be a problem with your computer.

Vance,
If you can tell me what browser you're using and what operating system and exactly what you see when you go to the page in question I can probably help you out in some fashion.

Please note that Internet Explorer is going the way of the dodo bird "http://www.theverge.com/2015/3/17/82306 ... orer-brand"
so now may be a good time to use Firefox or Chrome.

Amen Charlie.
Bought a new desktop yesterday and one of the first things I did was install chrome.

M$ has a new browser in the works, though: Project Spartan.

Personally, I use Maxthon, a Webkit browser. I have all the other browsers on board, but keep coming back to Maxthon.

I remember when MSIE first came out and drove Netscape out. Before that was Mosaic and before that Cello, and of course, Lynx.
