Works for me in both IE7 and FF3. You must have something wrong with your system. Do you have Google Toolbar installed? Perhaps it's blocking it.

By the way, sites don't run IE7. Sites run web pages. IE7 views them.

Must be either in our IE add-ons or in our configuration settings then? Something I have is exploitable and yours is not?

I have WinXP Pro SP3 and IE7, both fully patched. Security in IE is set to default for the Internet. Phishing filter is on and pop-up blocker is on and privacy security is set to med-high. Besides the Java and Adobe Reader add-ons, there are add-ons for SpyBot, Norton, and a few other minor stuff. I do, however, have the XML DOM Document 3.0 add-on installed, so maybe it's allowing the site?

And, I did notice, after going back, that a cookie for s.popshops.com is being blocked, shown in the privacy report. And, I noticed this time that when we go to http://www.seasideconnections.com/ there is an instant reroute/push to http://www.seasideconnections.com/seaside/ ... So, maybe that's what is being blocked... the push.

In addition to the above, SpyBot w/TeaTimer, Win Defender, Norton Antivirus 2009 are all runnning and there's a firewall on the router.

Security in IE is set to Medium for the Internet. I have the usual Java and Adobe Reader add-ons and Shockwave. XML DOM is there as well as SpyBot. I have WinXP Pro SP3 and IE7 and all patches are up to date. I have always used the XP Firewall and haven't had any problems. Avast Antivirus is installed on all PC's. I just tried it again http://www.seasideconnections.com/seaside/ and it is asking me to accept a cookie from popshops.com. It didn't ask me to accept cookies before. I accepted the cookie and I can see the site. I clicked on the Florist link and I am still waiting for something to happen. 5 minutes later and after a refresh I have four green blocks on the bottom and waiting for http://www.tkqlhce.com/click-3221522-364902... clicked on refresh again and nothing is happening. I left it for 10 minutes and it is still waiting. I haven't had any problems opening sites before on this PC. I will go down to the Shed and try it with Vista.

I have just opened the site On Vista with IE7, SP1 and clicked on the Florist link and accepted a cookie from http://www.justflowers.com it appears that both sites are working from this PC. Basically the same add-ons on each PC.

Oh yeah, I always forget about Windows Firewall. Out of sight, out of mind, ya know? ;) Yes, it's running on mine too.

I didn't have to accept any cookies. Mine just plain blocked it. But, the site came up fine. I don't see a florist link at all. I did click on the link to http://www.justflowers.com which came up fine. I do see though, that the appearance of the site is different in IE7 than it is in FF3. The main box in the middle of the page does not display the text links in FF3 like it does in IE7, but in IE7, the pictures don't all appear either.

So, I wonder if it's the different parts of the world we're visiting this site from that generates what we see? Sumptin' is broken! Time for the designer to go back to the drawing board! ;)

that I clicked on. Yep I have to agree that the site is in need of repair. ;)
