    Grrrrr. Can't get in today.

    No clue what's changed, but for some reason I'm unable to enter Chat today at all. I get the "security error" message. We haven't updated or changed anything on the network here at home, so I'm stumped. Anyway . . . I've rebooted twice, just in case, and no joy. :-(



    Have fun without me. (I won't say "behave," because I can see who's in there. Heh.)

    It's working for me so the security server is up. Something between your computer and our server in Dallas is probably blocking your access to the port the security server uses.

    Aaaaaand this morning, it's all good again. I didn't change a thing. Someone between here and there is messing with my head. (Doesn't take much these days.)

    Thanks for responding, Randall.

    Potholes on the so-called Information Superhighway. (But, hey, at least it's paved, if scrappily, these days - I remember when it was more like a dirt footpath.)

    Unfortunately, the Flash Security server requirement is a pain. It uses a port that a lot of people used to close (because nothing used it). Even after 2+ years, some places still block it.
