:whistling: :blink: I am having two problems.

1. When I make Animations with Animation 3 everything works perfectly on my computer. When I post my work into a forum I belong to I can not see my or anyones animations moving at all, although others in the forum say they see my animations, I can not. This happened about a year ago but forgot how it was fixed, which I believe was something very simple.

2. I get the following error message when ever I try to click on a link in any forum's, including this one. Also get it when trying to download something from one of the download sites or Web pages. This has just happened with in the last week. I do not recall making any changes in my system other than re-newing my Norton Anti-Virus. I do not understand what they mean by "does not have permission" or how to get permission.


This error (HTTP 403 Forbidden) means that Internet Explorer was able to connect to the website, but it does not have permission to view the webpage.

For more information about HTTP errors, see Help.

I have the following;

HP Pavilion 1034n, P4 [rocessor, 1GB PC2 3200 DDR2 SDRAM memory, 200GB 7200rpm Serial ATA Hard Drive Operating system is XP w/sp2

hope I have furnished enough info and some one out there can help me out. I patiently await an answer, Thank you Rich :help:

Either your security settings or your firewall may be preventing images being shown and downloading anything. Use Tools/Internet Options and reset the ones under the Security tab. Some sites do not allow displaying unless cookies are turned on. You could try setting to Medium high under the Privacy tab, plus clicking the Sites button and adding the URL and clicking the Allow button.

Under Tools/Internet Options/Privacy tab. See if you're set at Medium High or try Medium setting. Selecting Sites button will allow you to enter sites you wish to Block/Allow. Copy/paste the URLs of sites you're having problems with and see if this helps.

Norton's setup under the Firewall and Privacy settings need to be checked. Popups/Ads may be turned off, too. Norton has a long list of words it uses to block animation/ads/banners. You'll have to fine your way to them as I don't have Norton. My sister does, but it will be some time before I'll be over there to use her computer.

This from Symantec:

When using Internet Explorer, you must have the browser set to play animations in Web pages to see updates to the ThreatCon status. To set this option, do the following:

1. Open Internet Explorer.

2. Click Tools > Internet Options.

3. On the Advanced tab, under Multimedia, check Play animations in web pages.

4. Click OK.


This about blocked links, ads...more from Symantec.

HTH...
