Hi Folks. Thanks for the ideas, but cookie settings make no difference. The bizarre point is that AOL appears to use IE, In fact, if one selects options to change browser settings from within AOL it simply opens the IE dialogue box.
This problem is not new. For some years my bank would not allow access via the AOL browser but via IE it worked fine. This current problem has only arisen since the change of PPrune software. Prior to that I could access via AOL.
