Hi
Could I just ask where the IE setting is regarding 'open a separate window'. I'm having problems opening links in the Pigsback link that will link to the completed crossword/competition. Have posted on that thread and had some helpful suggestions, but I'm thinking it must be something techie that I need to do. In the Pigsback thread, a link is provided and, after logging into Pigsback, the instructions are to then click on the link in the Pigsback thread again, which would take me to e.g. the completed crossword. Every time I'm trying to do this, a new Pigsback window opens, asking me to login, and I'm just at the home page, not where the link aimed for. Have got Moneysaver and Pigsback both allowed fully, except for 3rd party, via ZoneAlarm, and haven't wiped cookies for either. Bit puzzled and would welcome advice. (Tried really hard to do the crossword myself, but no can do!)
Many thanks, Cat

Hi madnlooney
Many thanks for message. Just found the solutions ... first was to copy and paste the link into logged-in Pigsback, and then have had a response saying to enable 3rd party for Pigsback within ZoneAlarm. Normallly don't allow any 3rd party, so would never have thought of it myself!
Chuffed to bits, as all competitions have been entered now!
Thanks again, Cat0
