I had the Tech guys come out and fix my pc. They fixed and encrypted the wireless just fine. They added some add blocks and spyware and updated my IE explorer.

Now... I cant see any chess boards at chessgames.com or chesslab, or other instructional sites with java chess boards.

Please help!

Thanks in advance!

Perhaps try taking the add blocks off one by one. One of them might actually be falsely 'recognising' the chess boards as adverts and blowing them away.

On this site, i have to deavtivate my popup stopper to use the analyse board function.

Thanks jimslyp, I think I tried turning the ad block off.
What if it blocked it once now its gone forever even though the blocker is turned off?

It won't ' block it forever'. It examines each screen of code as it is received ( i think). Let us know if it worked.

Im having those turkeys come back out and fix or reset whatever it is that they screwed up but that might be a week or so.
I wish I could figure it out on my own before then. I hate feeling helpless.

If you really need java on IE, then do the following:
In IE, press Tools | Internet Options | Advanced
Then scroll down till you find the "Enable java" button and tick it, then reboot.

Have you tried threatening it with a knife? It rarely works but it sure does feel good...

My favourite is dangling it out of the window by the cable and screaming work you *****! WORK!
I rarely use violence like you though. I don't agree with it.😛

Have you tried reseetting the Advanced Internet options to default. Last resort for me sometimes.
