|
Ok, I'll be the first to admit that I may be missing something completely obvious, but I do not see any way to place myself on the GuestMap. When I click my location, I get a box with a flashing arrow pointing where I clicked and a flashing X in the top right corner. There are two data fields, for a Name and a Message and a button that says Place. Afer I fill in the fields and click Place, I get a message that says: "Before continuing, click the following: - No icon selected."
Is there something else I need to do in order to use the GuestMap??

what little faces to the right? I'm guessing they're not showing up on my computer.

I bet it is some ad blocking software you have running on your computers. Just like any spam blocker, it's going to filter some good stuff too. Norton Internet Security is something to check.

For some reason it doesn't work on IE but on Firefox and netscape. I haven't tried opera or anything like that. who uses IE anymore anyway?

Bah, I couldn't tolerate Firefox. I tried using it for a week and found it to be the most inconvenient software I have ever used.
I don't think it can be any ad-blocking software, because I'm not using anything. The only thing I have is the pop-up blocker for Avant, and I tried turning that off and still didn't have success with the GuestMap. I guess it is just the general incompatibility with the program and IE.

Could be people are using IE 6 with Service Pack 2. That comes with Internet Security and a Firewall. I could easily see that blocking the pop-up.
