My Mac is also freezing (did it at least 3 times yesterday while on the forum) ended with a system failure - don't know what the problem is....where is that new notebook of mine.

hey willmore, do you use Safari as your internet browser? i am and have had no probs with access to this or any other site...

Install Firefox. It's free, safe, and can block pop-ups.

Hi there "K" - just happened upon your message - didn't receive a mail notice.

Yes, I use Safari and for the most part it's excellent. However sometimes when the forum gets really busy, Safari seems to be confused. But the interesting thing is that when I switch over to IE it isn't any faster. So I'm sticking with it.

I've dis-mantled Norton's since yesterday, and have had no problems since, so perhaps that was the problem.
