Problem Diverted!

Blogger and Internet Explorer seem to be letting me on blog sites again...yeah! Thanks goes out to Aphra and Gina for answering my cries of help! Gina thinks it was this:

"If you are having problems with your blog- GET RID OF SITEMETER!!Last night I could not get on my blog- and I'm not able to get on a number of your blogs out there. I found via a help message board that SiteMeter seems to causing some problems.So if you get the Windows message that pops up saying "Site cannot be opened. Operation aborted." when going to your blog, try deleting SiteMeter."

Some helpful info...thanks! Looking forward to reading my fav blogs again!

Hmmm I didn't know that others were having issues. I use sitemeter and well it's staying. So hopefully you'll stop by with Firefox which is what I have done. :-) Hopefully IE gets that bug fixed soon.

i'm not sure it is due to sitemeter after all...i can now get on all sites that seem to have it..maybe i will try firefox! thanks!

Thank you for solving the mystery, Detective Karyn! I suspected Sitemeter because I couldn't access the sites that use it. So much for adding it to mine.

I had the issue, but not every one that 'aborted' showed sitemeter - and sitemeter is still on, and things seem to be working today - so, a cyber mystery. It's all a cyber mystery.

It IS a mystery b/c removing sitemeter immediately rectified the problem on my blog. I'm going to try adding it back on and see what happens. It may have been some other issues too, but sitemeter did seem to somehow have a connection.
Who knows??!?!
