I will consider this for Saturday or early next week. Right now after looking through 8 megs of witango logs for the day I can see it is not as it appeared to be always the same userreferancenumber but it is different ones at different times during the 2 hour window this happens.
But what I wanted to know is if I check this does that interfere with anyone using the site or paying for their courses that does not have 128bit. And since it happens to me and I run IE6 on all machines and safari on my Mac can it possibly be the problem? I really hesitate to make too many changes or any changes really till I have the logs analyzed and have a clear idea of what is happening. Thanks for the heads up though. I would like to be clearer on the effect it would have on the user. Dan on 9/4/03 23:35, Rick Sanders at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > Hi Dan, > > Sorry if I wasn't clear.
