I can't reproduce the problem on a pc still running Windows 7, regardless of browser type, IE, Chrome, Firefox. Firefox is set to 'Use system proxy settings'. Neither on my linux pc (Mint 18.3) with Firefox, Chromium and Qupzilla browsers installed. I guess you have reasons to make use of a proxy which may have detected some configuration change on the Hostgator server hosting WIMA. About a year ago I did encounter problems with services on the WIMA site: from one day to another some web pages appeared as 'not found'. I realized that the problem was that their 'root pages' were symbolic links under public_html pointing to sub directories outside public_html. I needed to create root pages under public_html in order to get these services working again. The Hostgator admin staff may have introduced some new subtle security measure(s) causing problems for your setup. Did any other tex-music subscribers encounter a similar problem?

Re: [Tex-music] Problem accessing WIMA
My Firefox Quantum opens WIMA without demur. Admittedly, I run it with "No proxy" selected because some other sites were intolerably slow if I did not do that.

Well, I finally figured out how to explicitly stop McAfee Firewall from blocking my access to WIMA. But I still wonder if anyone besides me has had this problem, and also whether there's anything that should be done by Christian to track down a fix whatever was causing it. --Don From: Don Simons [mailto:dsim...@roadrunner.com] Sent: Saturday, January 26, 2019 9:52 PM To: 'Werner Icking Music Archive' Subject: RE: Problem accessing WIMA I had McAfee Firewall turned on.

I had McAfee Firewall turned on. When I turned it off, I could access WIMA OK. This is obviously not a good solution.
