I have a similar problem with one site.
I can get to the site, it accepts my first log on without a problem.
The site allows me to select the department I want but as soon as I do
and put in my second log on, I get a similar thing happen as you get:
a box that, in my case, tells me to install one of their "recommended"
browsers. I can't get any further. There's no "ignore and carry on"
option.
Your problem seems to be about cookies though. I have mine set to
session only with only one or two exceptions. If I am forced to
accept all cookies by a particular site, I clean them all out when
I've finished with the site.
So now I have running, "NoScript", "AdBlockPlus", "MalewareBytes",
"AVG Antivirus", and "SpyBot's watcher" and I hope those are not causing
this.
I don't know anything about "NoScript" or "AdBlockPlus". I have
Malwarebytes, AVG Antivirus, SpyBot Search & Destroy, SuperAntispyware
and SpywareBlaster on my machine and none of them cause any problems.
Then SeaMonkey has protection...what it allows or not.
This has kept me free of Viruses, Maleware, Scripts, Trojans, etc., but
it won't allow me to view some web sites !
The screen stays white and a balloon pops up and says denied due to
dangerous "stuff" on that web site.
If the site you are trying to get to is a regular one that hasn't
caused you any problems in the past, it should be all right now. I
would suggest perhaps using Google or another search engine to see if
there are any reports of the site having been hacked and malicious
code inserted. That's happened to at least two sites to my knowledge.
If it's a new one, then trust your security.
By BEATING ON SEAMONKEY's Cookies Control...i.e. I didn't know WHAT I
was doing, I got Yahoo Mail to accept both accounts - by ALLOWING
COOKIES from Yahoo ! SM's setting was allowing NO cookies ! Default ?!
I have a Yahoo account too. I use session cookies only with it and
don't have a problem.
So it is a confusing combination of all that "Protection" and which
protection to remove before I can get into the web site properly.
This Internet Surfing wearing Electronic Protection is getting difficult !
I wonder if you are setting your security levels higher than they need
to be.
Which firewall do you use? I have ZoneAlarm and have set it too high
before now or blocked a particular program. The result is that I've
locked myself out of a site or sites or even the whole internet on one
occasion.
