Help Me Computer Tech Nerds!

Sorry, I am so angry at the moment. I had to waste like an hour trying to figure out why I couldn't post on this forum!!!

I also had a problem loading the freewebs site and any freeweb user site.

So, I went ahead and downloaded Mozilla Firefox and right now I'm using it. Actually, it is the only way I can post on this site!! WHY IS THAT?

I try to post this from Internet Explorer...

Edit: Obviously it works.
Edit2: I usually post using Mozilla without troubles. I just tried with Internet Explorer, and it worked too. What system do you use? Did you do an upgrade recently?

(TRYING TO KEEP IN HER ANGER) Okay...

Could it be because I had updated my firewall?

[fafner]

Your firewall may try to block any outoging data it considers confidential (a text for example). This could affect only Internet Explorer and not other browsers... Try to see if you can find an option about outgoing data. Otherwise, maybe you can tell me which firewall you use?

This discussion is about to become the greatest beta-testing of various systems/softwares/websites of all times

I usually use the Yahoo Browser and not IE, but both of them weren't working for me and its been like this for a week or a week in a half. I did update my firewall but I don't know what to do with it besides restore to my old one. Hm... what do you mean system? You mean what type of computer? I guess a XP.

If your Internet settings prohibit sending data over unencrypted connections, you will need to change that setting. This is the only thing I can imagine might be the problem. irate:

I only use IE for things that Opera does not do. Despite Opera's speed advantage over IE, IE does correctly display even flawed HTML code.

Sorry but, where can I change these internet settings?
