I am trying to get into a forum on another site - never had an problems before but now.. when I try and get in there it comes up with the following:
The current Web page is tyring to open a site in your trusted sites list. Do you want to allow this?
At the bottom it says if you don't trust the current web page, choose No.
Well I have a bit of a dilemma because I'm not sure what to do. I would know what to do if I understood why this message has just started coming up.
The trusted site ref ends in ieframe.dll which I understand to be something to do with internet explorer but is this a bona fida thing to be trusted or viewed with suspicion?
If anyone can help I'd be really grateful.
Worried Mouse

If it's the same website that I tried to check last night, I think they have a problem with the coding on their web page, because I got an error dialogue box that said "Internet Explorer cannot open the Internet site http://. . . . .org/. Operation aborted."
I clicked the okay button, and half their webpage stayed open, while the central portion displayed the usual "The page cannot be displayed" that you get when a site is down.
Some of the technical forums suggest that the coding problem only affects people who use Internet Explorer to open the page (that's me), but if you use Firefox, you should be okay. The remainder of the explanations were too technically detailed for me to understand.
Maybe someone else here can offer a much clearer explanation.
I'm not going to switch to Firefox because so far that's the only site where I've encountered this particular problem, and I only wanted to look at that site out of nosiness.

The people who build the sites have to make sure it works in each browser. Sometimes they're unaware they have to make adjustments for each browser, or run out of time/money/interest to finish the project properly and check it works properly before leaving the job. I have a mac ansd sopmetimes I can't view stuff thats on a PC which is really frustrating too.
