Can anyone explain?

Why it is now impossible for me to post comments on sites with blogger format, like Glenn Greenwald and Cannonfire? I write the comment and enter the little "word" they want you to type in, but it <!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em>never</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> publishes, just keeps asking me to enter (different) "words". Help?<br>p.s. this problem started about a week ago. Anyone else having problems? Maybe some one could go over there and see if they can get in a comment? Thanx in advance. <p></p><i></i>

Did you install anti-pop up software lately?

I have to turn mine off to post in the situations you described. <p></p><i></i>

Hey Asta, thanks for responding. The answer is that I have had the same anti-pop up software for some time, certainly longer than a week. This problem seems insurmountable. I hope others who are having these problems will post and let me know what I might be able to do. <p></p><i></i>

Heyia Sunny:<br><br>I had no difficulty making a comment to the Cannonfire blog;<br><br>Perhaps -- Are you trying to post as 'blogger' instead of 'other'? If so, try the latter. Perhaps the blog isn't accepting your name or password?<br><br>I had a similiar problem a while ago, don't remember the exact details of what or how I finally got over it. It sounds like a software glitch --perhaps a recent new program, or even an automatic security update on your machine, may be interfering with or be incompatable with the posting function? Mebbe, try checking your cookie settings? Have you shut your unit off and rebooted between attempts?<br><br>The only other thing I can imagine is you may be being wrongly 'blocked' or filtered. Have you e-mailed the blog admin. for technical assistance?<br><br>Sorry I can't be of more help.<br>Good luck!<br>Starman <p></p><i></i>

Starman, thanks! I am terribly un-savvy tech wise, so I'll just fool around until I hit on something. I do post as<!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em> other</em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> on those sites.<br>Also, I recently deleted cookies, which might have something to do with it. Don't know what to do about that particular issue.<br>Just very frustrating, as I love Glenn Greenwald and like to give him regular doses of props. <p></p><i></i>
