Sorry for the delay in sending this, but the e-mail part of my ISP had an outage for most of yesterday. I couldn't send or receive e-mails. This has regularly happened during the past three weeks. The outages have lasted from a few hours to all day! No sooner have they repaired the fault, than it goes off again! Very frustrating! Any way, changing the browser identification in Konqueror works and I can use the site. However, User Agent Switcher in Firefox doesn't work with this site. So, for now, I will use Konqueror.
