Until last week my sidebar items like weather and BBC radio would contact the internet and download their data. Now I cannot get them to do this, they are loading OK, but will not function properly. I have looked at the firewall as a possible block (its Zone alarm) but cannot find a reason for the failure. Any thoughts? Nick |
