Thread Name: Max's Experiment & Mudcat Funding
Subject: RE: Max's Experiment & Mudcat Funding
I am using windows 98 with explorer 4.0 (Yeah, I know, I know) and
also have an intrusion protector continuously running, I can get on
to the front page, but after clicking on a thread I get a small
amount of load time and then an immediate crash, this carries the message that I.E. has performed an illegal operation and will be shut
down.

I then have to shut the machine down and re-boot, other sites don't
seem to give any trouble.

This problem has only appeared since the experiment started. I would
also add that it still occurs with another machine with a
standard setup and no firewalls etc.

I have now found that if I put my main firewall on, this problem
goes away and I can access the threads,(rather obvious or I wouldn't
be typing this, would I?), but it does seem to work, so far.

This is only for information, and Max, you do what you want with the
site and we'll go with it, I'm just so glad that I have found a way
round this problem so I can still log on and keep up with you all, I thought I'd lost you for ever.


Thanks again Max for all you do for us.

Best wishes
