 Al  Parker (TopCat) phoned me a few minutes ago to say that he and Toni (Wiininkwe) and several others are " locked out"  of the PUT sites entirely.   After talking with him--he and Toni are both on AOL,--we decided that probably the lockout has come as a result of some kind of sudden incompatibility between their AOL settings and  our PUT  server.  Al had already been in touch with Steve who is looking into it.   (Hmmm...I  THOUGHT  things here looked pretty slow, even for a Sunday)
 
 So if you have any friends who cannot get on, tell them not to freak out, but to be patient and keep trying.   I KNOW that Steve and Dave will not let them be locked out in the cold a second longer than necessary[:)]
 
 I have not had a single second of trouble getting in--use IE AND MY TRUSTY MAC POWERBOOK with OSX !![:@][:)][8D][:D]

 you might have to lower your security setting instead of turning it off

 NightOwlI don t think it s an AOL thing, I think it s more an internet addressing problem.
 
 I use Verizon DSL and coupld not get to the site, but if I used the IP address I could get to popuptimes.com.
 
 Very Strange.

 Thanks Harv,

 NightOwlJust had an e-mail from Sharon (SLTrawick) and she cannot access any of the PUT forums.  Her e-mail address shows that her ISP is " comcast."
 
 I ve been on the board off and on with no problems all day long, and  dont understand why some of us have had no problems and  at the same time, some of us cant get on at all  or have to try and try.   ???????????????

 NightOwlI couldn t get in today using the new message board address saved in my Favorites. I tried the old Favorites setting and I could successfully get to the PUT main page (instead of the message board). No AOL here (MSN).

 Go to www.nimblewaresolutions.com and down load their " Banner Zapper" , they have a free trail, and believe me it works great and well worth the $9.99 to register it! I love it, and it doesn t interfere with most site s, and if it does, you can set it to allow banners and pop-up s at specified site s. Excellent program!

 NightOwlI ve been in and out of here several times today and have had no problems, if anything it seems to responding faster than normal.

Bruce, that s probably because there was NO ONE here but you and 4 or 5 others of us who could get in[;)]
