Greetings, subfever, dekley...
And all the rest who have been experiencing problems logging into the Collarme main site recently. Just wanted to let you know of a solution that has worked for me. It's not a total solution as not everything works as it did before, but most of it works. Most importantly it got me back into the site. I should note however that when I made these changes I was no longer able to log on to this Chat Forum. I can read everything, just not log on and make comments. But that's just my computer. This morning I changed my Java settings back (see below) so I could log on and give you this information. If it helps anyone I'll be pleased to know. I think what has happened is something that has been suggested a couple of times in this thread... that something in the Java Scripting has been changed (updated?) on Collarme recently which left some of us unable to log onto more than a blank page. Even though the solution below isn't specifically for resolving 'blank pages' this is what worked for me. It can easily be reversed if it doesn't work for you.
Thanks again for everyone's help and patience.
Good luck!

INTRODUCTION

This article describes how to improve browsing performance in Internet Explorer.
MORE INFORMATION
loadTOCNode(1, 'moreinformation');
The most common cause of poor performance in Internet Explorer is large pictures, sounds, videos, or other multimedia files that appear or are played automatically when you access a Web page. If you are using a slow connection to access the Internet, these files may take a long time to appear or be played.
To improve browsing performance in Internet Explorer, you can prevent pictures, sounds, videos, and other multimedia files from appearing or being played automatically when you access Web pages. To do so, use the appropriate method.
