hmm i've tested it on IE7 and Firefox 2 and works on both. You do need Adobe Flash player and Java.

is your browser set to allow cookies?

 

[okiechick57]

well. as far as I know , yes it is.......don't have any problems with anything else? how does one go about checking to see if THIS site is not allowed?

 

[FutureChickenMan]

Internet explorer: Tools, Internet Options, Security. You're looking for "Cookies" you want to allow them. Or you can put http://www.backyardchickens.com/ in the trusted sites list.

firefox is tools, options, not sure where after that.

also, if you have some firewall thing like zone alarm that could be blocking it too.
