Okey Dokey.. well I sadly use geocities for my websites. Its been working great, until I woke up one day went to load the page builder and it said something like :The page may not load correctly, you security settings do not supporrt ActiveX: It wasnt exactly like that. But, im really mad now I cant update my site or even put the last few pages in it. It also said if the link to page builder does not display then install java or turn on java well I did both. And it still wont work. I tried to contact Dell but ignored me. And then I tried geocities but that did no good. So im trying to figure out what to do... please help.

Heres the link to my site any way www.afiwester.cjb.net

Thanks,
Cory

site seems to be working fine. the only funky thing was that it tried to install gator which is not good. gator is a very bad thing.

gator is spyware. it installs itself and tracks your movements online. then send the data to the gator home world. the data is used for direct marketing.

they're one of the worse. i don't have a problem with them doing it. what i have a problem with is that they do it without the computer owners knowledge. if the computer owner wants it on their machine that's they're business.

gator installs then and start popping up pop ups, grrrr.
