Haven't checked. But I used to face similar problem with Yahoo Groups on my VSNL dialup connection. Usual explanation was that some of the group sites were "banned" (whatever that may mean) by Govt. and since Yahoo wouln't block a particular group VSNL would block the groups site itself. Once it continued for couple of weeks. May be something similar is happening now. I used proxify.com to access the groups then. There is a download/number of access limits in this. Another way I used was to access yahoo groups from link in another country (like Singapore) Yahoo web site. Worked with some groups though. > blogger.com, geocities.com, yahoogroups and many others, on my > connection. No, I am not behind a firewall. Has someone else > experienced the same problems?

However, I have been unable to use it since it demands Internet Explorer. I tried it with Mozilla, Firefox and Konqurer. In all cases, the error message is simialr - Sorry IE required. I even tried with browser identification in Konqurer set to Internet Explorer. The page opens, I could see the username/password entry windows - but this lasted only for a second or so. It changed to the same error message. Any suggestion? ( I do have an old windows 98 installation and tried with that. But the IE on that is old and the error there is OLD version of IE and Upgrading it to later version is too complicated - I think WIN 98 is no more supported) HTH Vikas Garud -- ______________________________________________________________________ Pune GNU/Linux Users Group Mailing List: ([email protected]) List Information: http://plug.org.in/mailing-list/listinfo/plug-mail Send 'help' to [EMAIL PROTECTED] for mailing instructions.
