Apologies if someone else has mentioned this or given an answer/solution but I can't get past the first/main page on GR either.

As soon as it signs me in (automatically) the whole screen freezes - and that's all folks.  :(

I don't use it very often but it annoys me that I pay good money and get nothing in return.  >:(

I have no other problems with any other sites.

Anyone have any answers or is a case of just put up with paying for nothing  ::)

Thanks

Di

I've just been onto my GR page, and it's all loading OK.  I don't pay to use it any more, but the site has let me amend some details.

I use XP & Avant Browser/IE7.

Are you using Vista?

I still have the same problem Di although I can enter the site if I use a link from one of GR's emails to the FAQ page!

I will email them later and ask for an explanation.

Which browser are you using (IE (version?), Firefox, Opera, etc) ?  Do you have Flash installed ?   Do your security settings allow scripts to run ?

RIP 1949-10th January 2013

Best Wishes,  Nick.

Hi BM - I don't use Vista as I've been warned that it is not an "ugrade" on Windows XP. I haven't changed a thing on my system so it does appear to be changes made on their site.

It only freezes when it signs in - so I guess the best thing to try and do it use it without signing in (and therefore may as well not pay  ::) )

I still have the same problem Di although I can enter the site if I use a link from one of GR's emails to the FAQ page!

I'm sorry that you still have the same problem Barbara but at least we aren't alone with this little "challenge"  ::)

Good luck with your email. I'd like to hear what their explanation is and when it will be rectified.

Oh Nick - I don't understand any of the technical things - total dummy at all this  ::)

I know I have Windows XP, I "think" I have IE6 - the rest of it is a foreign language - sorry I can't be any help/use  :-[ ::)

It use to work and now it don't - after that I don't know  :(

Thanks anyway

I have been having another "play" with this and have found that if I use this address

http://www.GenesReunited.co.uk/home/

I can access the site.

I still can't access using just

www.GenesReunited.co.uk/

Hope you receive an answer from GR Barbara.

It'll be interesting to hear what, if anything, they have to say on the matter.

I also have had a little play and as someone on here suggested, I tried the Aust GR site and had no problems - as long as I didn't log in.

The same applies to the link that you have just supplied. All works fine - until I sign in.

I'm sure there's an easy answer somewhere somehow for us.
