Access blocked?
For about the last 3 weeks, when I try to view this discussion board, everything will appear except the actual discussion headings, so I can't access the posts. This has happened both on my computer at work (I have no reason to believe the IT guys would block my access on purpose) and also at a computer at a friend's house. Any ideas on what is up and how to fix it? THanks!

I'm inept on the computer but some virtual friend guided me to tools, internet options, and click the security tab and you'll see what you have enabled. Otherwise you type in fodors.com and click allow. I hope it helps you as it did me, Heather.

Well, I have now tried adjusting every control in Internet Options separately and in every conceivable combination, and I still cannot access the posts at work! Other computers in my building can, and I don't know what else to try. ANY more suggestions?

If you have a firewall, you may also need to check to see if it has an option to restrict or control cookies. I have ZoneAlarm on my computer at home, and on some sites I have to change the cookie control options for the site to work.

Firewall? Yes. You need one, especially if you have a cable modem connection. You are vulnerable everytime you turn on your computer because you are constantly on line. I use Zone Alarm also. I hope it keeps some of the "casual" hackers out. I keep my IE Privacy Cookies at "Medium."
