I think you are right MB..the library catalog is unrelated to denied access to the forum. Our library has a lotta stuff put on. A software program for internet reservations, a software program for printing, anti virus program and program for blocking inappropriate sites. That's not even counting the other stuff like word/excel and a couple different internet browsers plus other things I never looked at. In josettes library case, it may depend on where the server is. Our library's server is at the downtown location and all the branches tie into it. When the main server goes down, all the branches go down - which does happen. Perhaps each of her branches has it's own server. I guess it depends how large her library system is. It just seems kooky that the poor DS forum gets blocked in places and so much other stuff goes thru.

The funny thing is the adjacent Seminole county library system uses similar software but it works there. They just don't have a reciprocal agreement with Orange and it costs $1/hour for non county residents.

The library also uses an aggressive site blocker to prevent "inappropriate content" ...lol. I thought that was the reason at first and tried to convince the head it person there was no nudity or adult content. She seemed satisfied but the opening page commentary about the site being back up and not surprised about what you might find seemed to convince her the site did have problems and she wouldn't override the software warnings. Nothing more I could do.

For what it's worth, the Orange County public library system blocks the Dark Shadows forum. Their anti virus software program has flagged the site as being dangerous ( I forget the exact language but sent MB a PM about it when it first started a couple years ago and it is still blocked). All that will come up is what you get - the page saying Forums is back and the next page comes up blank. So I am guessing when you took your puter in the shop, a similar anti virus program was installed that is blocking the site.
