My dad has been playing with the settings on our computer & now I can't access a photography website which I've had no problems with in the past... I get the message Error 403 - Forbidden - You are not authorized to view this page.


Any ideas how I can fix this??


Thanks!

When you find the website click the link or enter it in in the Address Bar, and then check to see whether there is a <P> at the end of the link, if so delete this and press enter, it should work if not then I don't know what the porblem is
parental control, blocked website

it's quite possible that your dad has barred the site, [possibly didnt like the photographs ;)  ]  if you really want to get access to the site you might want to try this...

Download mozilla firefox (or any other freeware web browser) Install this in a inconspicuous part of the hard drive,(so dad doesnt know its there!) with any luck the Internet Explorer settings wont be carried over, also your surfing will be more secure.

hope this helps
