Re: Mirrored or linked sites?

Lavasoft does not "seem to" be interfering.
It is, based upon MY security settings.
While you are correct, about where to post, the issue was posting to any
forum, and one of the facets is MS not tagging the cookies with their name,
which was allowed, but some other name which wasn't.

I know. It appeared that your post was asking how he was using Google. I
told you how.

I come here direct.

Yes, using your browser. I'm using Outlook Express newsreader.

I don't need LavaSoft support

Lavasoft is the maker of Ad-aware Ad-Watch, which you purchased. As
Ad-Watch seems to be interfering when you try to open a Reply to a newsgroup
post, I suggest that you do need their help.

This thread would be more appropriately posted in IE6 Browser newsgroup, as
it has nothing to do with Windows Update.

I still would like to know why, even though I have "microsoft cookies"
allowed, this site needs something different, and to make a new post, I
still haven't figured out what to "allow", I just have to kill protection.
Why are the cookies on this site not identified as microsoft?

I don't need to be supporting Google.
Not by even posting to a forum they duplicate out.

Google Groups carries most of the MS newsgroups
(http://groups.google.com/groups/dir?sel=33606727&expand=1), including
this one
(http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsupdate?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8).
If you Register at Google Groups, you can post to MS newsgroups there.

You appear to be accessing this newsgroup via "webnews"
(http://support.microsoft.com/newsgroups/newsReader.aspx?lang=en&cr=US&dg=microsoft.public.windowsupdate).

I and many others access the MS newsgroups using a newsreader
(http://www.microsoft.com/communities/guide/nntpnews.mspx).

I can post replies to threads and still leave AdWatch active, but I
try "new topic", it shuts it right down. I also have to allow all
popups to open a "new topic".

Support for Ad-Watch is available here: http://www.lavasoftsupport.com/
(try the second one, "Welcome to Lavasoft Support Forums").

Is this part of Google or not?

I also have an issue with posting here.
Took a while to figure it out.

The actual reason I looked was due to one of the "MVP"s at the MS
forum mentioning pop-ups and cookies.
I haven't yet determined what the actual name is, but the list of
known bad sites in the AdAware / AdWatch library is one of the things
that flags.

I can post replies to threads and still leave AdWatch active, but I
try "new topic", it shuts it right down. I also have to allow all
popups to open a "new topic".


m.webtrends.com is the cookie name. Note no mention of Microsoft.
You set it into Spyware Doctor whitelist, and the next day it flags
something else.

I have to "disable" AdWatch active, allow all popups, and enter that
cookie into the "whitelist", and it still takes two clicks.

Once you figure out what they are calling themselves in their
cookies, you can allow it, but I already had microsoft allowed, and
this ain't it.

So, why does this site contain so much "stuff" that on any other
website would raise red flags all over the Malware forums?

I don't have all these programs because I want a lot of programs.
I do it because it keeps the bad guys at bay.

I am not very happy that this forum requires me to kill or shut down
or modify programs I KNOW work to access.
