Browser Issues

Anyone having issues with accessing nobmob through different web browsers?

I used to use IE, but now I can only view the site. I get an error when I try and log on. After that I used Firefox, but now I can't even see the site. I receive an error straight away.

Now I have to use Chrome and it all works OK. Anyone having similar issues? Is there a fix?

Using Safari on a MacBook no problems since the site came back up yesterday.

Yeah, I thought the upgrade (or whatever it was) yesterday may have fixed the issues but it didn't.

I'm using a PC by the way.

Firefox is working for me.

Welcome to the world, you will see it all new bright world once you are using Chrome!!
Take the opportunity to remove IE…

Chrome, just another spyware app from Google. Use SRWare Iron instead. http://www.srware.net

Sorry about the issues. What error exactly are you getting? Do you want to email a screenshot?

I would've thought if it was the proxy then it wouldn't work on Chrome either?

Have you tried to clear temp files, history etc

BT's picture

Yeah, did all that

This message is a result of one of the anti-spam modules thinking you are a spam robot. Probably because you are using a very old browser, or because you are unlucky enough to be using the site from home or work network that has been blacklisted. Either of those sound like it could be the case?

FWIW, there is meant to be a 'fix it yourself' link on that page. What happened when you clicked that?

I have those issues with IE7 at work. I don't mind - it means i get some work done Eye-wink

Going to IE8 a year late in April as part of a SOE upgrade once the system I administer is brought up to a current release.

Yeah, I'm at work. Shhhhhh Smiling

I get this message when clicking the fix yourself link:

Technical Support
An invalid request was received from your browser. This may be caused by a malfunctioning proxy server or browser privacy software.

To resolve this problem, try bypassing the proxy server and connecting directly, disabling the browser privacy software, or using a different web browser.

If you are using a work computer and are unable to make these changes yourself, contact your network administrator for assistance.

All good, I'll just use Chrome.
