Have you managed to solve it? I noticed the last move times of your current games are after the time of your first post... If not - which game is it and what are you trying to move?

Mac is the one platform I can't test on. But I am aware of other users who do use a Mac without any issues. Rhymester???

Using AOL as it is on my Mac will NOT work. I had to install netscape (from a free magazine disk or you could download it). You then log on to AOL in the usual way but then load Netscape 'on top' as well... from there you log on to RedHotPawn and, for me, the site works fine.

Having said all that I use my PC 99% of the time and on there I can use AOL directly. But interestingly enough there are some sites that I have to do the same Netscape thing with on the PC.

Someone somewhere said the Safari browser on the Mac works fine. If I could get hold of a cheap Mac, I would test on this and add it to my supported list.

I would probably aviod Netscape now on all platforms. My fave' IE alternative is the Firebird browser from the Mozilla project.

And this is available on Mac too.

Why avoid Netscape? If you can explain in layman's terms, that is 🙂

I have Windows 98 and Netscape works for me.

Netscrap is sooo last month now. The goss is that there will be no further versions or update patches. They are letting it 'retire' and eventually less and less sites will support it. Get wise and install another browser. If your'e not into IExx and have a bit of 'geekability' then try firebird from Mozilla. It's bulletproof and supported on RHP.
