Same here. Nothing there. But then, I have never been able to make SPOT
display. I have Java and Java scripts up the gazoo to no effect.


What operating system and version of Internet Exploder are you
running?

SPOT tech support was quite useless. I am running Windows XP completely up
to date and Firefox 3 though I also have IE 7. SPOT won't show me a shared
page on any of them nor on my laptop which is running Windows ME. I just
get a blank page with the SPOT logo.


Something is getting in the way. I'm using IE 7 with plain vanilla
Vista on my home desktop with no problems. Do you have Firewall
software installed or pop-up blockers? I'd suspect something like
that.
