Recently, I kicked up my security controls on my computer a notch or so.
When I am A2K, and want to post a URL, I get a message "The website is using a scripted window to ask you for information. If you trust this website, click here to allow scripted windows".
Fair enough. If I want more security, I have to put up with some machinations. When I click on the message, I get a message saying "Temporarily allow scripted windows".
Now, on other sites, the message gives you a choice, either to allow scripted windows "temporarily" or "always". If I click "always" I never have to bother with these messages on that particular site.
On A2K, there is only one choice, so I have to go through the rigamarole each time that I want to post a URL or a picture. Now I trust A2K. Why is my security center not giving me the choice of always allowing scripted windows on A2K?
BTW, my security center is set to "medium-high".
Doesn't anyone here know what I am talking about?
The scripted windows thing may be the green ads, I'm not sure.
Jes- I understand that possibility. What I want to know is why am I not given a choice on A2K of always allowing the scripted windows, as I am on other sites?
we upgraded to IE7, and i experienced the same issue.
to fix:
go to Tools ---> Internet Options
click the Security Tab
click Trusted Sites (green check mark)
click the Sites button on the right
de-check "Require server verification (http:) for all sites in this zone"
add this website to the zone: http://www.able2know.com
close
OK
unfortunately, now i'm getting Security Warnings on every other page or so
adding
http://advertising.able2know.com to Restricted Sites seems to've eliminated the warnings...
I'll try that Region. Thanks!

Not usually, no. Or are you just talking about this specific time.
that could very well be, Phoenix.
i don't know enough about it to say one way or the other...
but i do know that this is how the settings should look:
Region- I did all that. Ah, I am not going to worry about it!
Place *.able2know.com (asterisk-dot-able2know-dot-com) in the "Trusted" zone for both IE and your firewall, and in both IE and your firewall, allow A2K to place cookies. You prolly oughtta allow A2K to open popups, too; otherwise autoformating text/links/images, PM notifications and spellcheck won't work as they should.
Stumble It!
