14 people, myself included, have looked at this post but no one has replied. We're all just a bunch of old dinosaur hot-rodders that are lucky to be able turn the damned things on apparently...I know I am... :lmao:

You didn't buy a Lucas Compooter, did you, Steve...??? :D Might just need a can of wiring harness smoke added to it... :lmao:

Maybe one of the under-30 crowd will read this and fix you up in about 2 seconds... :lol: :yesnod: :lol:

I'll take a whack. I think it has to do with your cookies enabled. Its a protection system that doesn't let you look at certain things that can be potentially harmful, like pictures of Rays Miata. :lol: :jester: I forget how to change them, I have had a Mac for so long I forget.

Thanks for the replies lads,I knew you wouldn't let me down :thumbsup: .....computers confuse the hell out of me.I've just found out if I right click a posted link, then click on copy shortcut,then paste in a new window it works. Pain in the ass but at least it works.Hopefully somebody will know a far easier way :popcorn:

Its got to do with how your internet browser is set up. There are different security settings and you'll have to go into your options page and set it accordingly. I know "medium high" works with IE and is what I use. Your mileage may vary.

I have a fairly new computer using Windows 7. In some cases you have to press "Control" Ctrl and left click you get a link to work.
