I'm advised that some users have been experiencing problems viewing a/d charts on the AIS website. It has apparently been affecting users of Norton antivirus and internet security products and arises because the URL contains the letters AD, as in:-
http://www.nats-uk.ead-it.com/aip/current/ad/EGAA/EG_AD_2_EGAA_2-1_en.pdf

Norton thinks it's an advertisement and blocks it. (Would that the purveyors of junk ads acted in so predictable a manner!) I use AVG and don't have any problem. If anyone has Norton and gets the problem perhaps they'd be kind enough to advise what the fix is.

Does Norton not have the ability to set up exclusions for specified sites so that they don't get trapped?
