Thoughts..

Is javascript enabled? (Javascript and Java are really two different
entities, the latter a programming language, and the former used
often in HTML)

I have absolutely NO idea! How do I check? I always just assumed "javascript" was evidence that Java was percolating!




..both use NAV and Norton Firewall..

Are these both firewalls? Generally running two firewalls is frowned on. Is the XP firewall active too? Check each for JS blocking.

No - NAV is Norton's AntiVirus. I DO have Windows Firewall OFF. Would
the AntiVirus have any impact on this?

Thanks for the tips... I will try looking in the Firewall for JS.
