Yes the cursed parental control.

Just thought what they would think of otf, and wierdly enough, otf's vista parental controls have issues with otf,

So far, anything with admin.outpost10f.com cant be viewed. I.e. following issue.

Webpage cannot be rated

And gets blocked lmao. Feel sorry for any poor souls who get stuck with parental controls on them when vista appears!

gives up ... quite a lot of OTF is not viewable, with the same consistant "cannot be rated" error lol.

One more reason Not to Buy Vista?

Or would otf's parents like their children protected from "safe" pages ...  :?

Heres the issue thought...

Vista and schools.

Most schools who will upgrade to vista will most likely impose the parental controls on their users, as an extra layer of security.

Considering the proportion of otf which is school-kids... half of otf wont be viewable to them lmao.

I seem to have no problems with viewing any OTF site (Or any site for that matter) using Firefox 2 on Windows Vista.

Why're you using IE7 anyways, its just IE6 with a stolen tabbed browsing and a glossy finish?

well, It created a test account, turned the controls on... wasn't expecting it to block it.
