Yes, I've been having difficulty. Yesterday was the worse time. After I clicked on a post comment, every page was unavailable. I closed joeuser and still could not get on. I restarted Maggie, came back and got this message...

UNDER CONSTRUCTION t> Response object error 'ASP 0156 : 80004005'

Header Error

/include/juDatastore.asp, line 827

The HTTP headers are already written to the client browser. Any HTTP header modifications must be made before writing page content.
I saved it because it's one I've never seen anywhere and I wanted to see what microsoft troubleshooters said.
Thanks.

Hello WiseFawn. Thank you for your comment. This issue that you had encountered was a "opps" mistake done yesterday when doing some minor updates to the website. Thankfully, it was corrected, but users, like you were caught having to deal with this annoying error. Thank you for your report. I do appreciate it.

The only problem I have experienced since my return delt with accessing from watchlist e-mail.
When I enter via the link on e-mail I initially open onto the comments, but then automatically I am sent to that blogs home, sometimes having to scroll through more recent articles to find the one I was e-mail about in the beginning,
I have tried the back key, but that returns to my e-mail.
It's a quirk, but no biggie...........
Thanks for the site, warts and all

I shifted to FireFox a couple of weeks ago, and it is working well. The only thing I am not getting is the text-formating tool bar, and to be frank I had so much trouble with it I don't miss it. I think you could Mozilla in your recommended list without much worry.

When trying to post new blog entries, I've been unable to do so. A window reading Page Unavailable pops up. I can post comments, just not access functions from My Account.

I am getting the same message as Dusk411 and Wisefawn. I'm also going through posting withdrawal.

It did the same thing to me...and me too, Nicky! I was obsessing about when I was going to be able to get my next 'fix'......

It's working again now though....

Three comments (abusing the thread, since they are not login related, though):

1) I also have that "doubled name" problem. (I just edit the url by hand, paste it in, and go about my business.)
2) Regarding Dynosoar's problem. You guys have been doing a lot of appending things to the URL (eg., "&u=1" etc) and reloading the page lately that is extremely annoying. Most times it "reloads" to a different page than the one I was trying to get originally. I've had to take the extreme step of quarantining JoeUser into a "no JavaScript" zone much of the time.
3) Could you please try to be more universal in your programing than "requiring" the "latest" version of Internet Explorer. The mind trust over at MS has decided not to make any new versions of IE for Macintosh and I'm getting left behind enough by your site as it is.

Thank you, and sorry to be off topic.

Identical problem as Nicky G. Can't post entries...it could be a grudge issue, if so I am happy to leave but would like to be shown the door_if it's what you want_Just make it Plain, in words, without HTML coding preventing me from blogging.
Thank you for the site_it's outta site.

smartaz The latest Version of IE isn't required... just recommended.

Dark-Star- Thank you. I was able to get around this morning, but am back to being doubled and can't post. Calico KIttens and Grapevine Wreaths will wait!

P.S. I don't want to presume, but I think you'd save a lot of traffic to the front page if you added the sidebar to the forums as well.
