Not sure what the problem is with netscape 7.1

Hello,

I recently posted that I was looking for a pop up killer and a member here told me to look into Netscape Navigator. I did and decided to try out Netscape browser 7.1. I am liking it so far but have run into a problem recently. I was or still am a IE 6.0 user as well. Here is the problem I am having... I logged onto WindowsBBS.com to thank the people the got me to Netscape as it is working very well with the pop up problem but when I tried to post I keep getting told that I am not logged on or do not have accsess to that page. If I use IE 6.0 like I am now to post I have no problems. Did I mess up in a settings somewhere? Can someone enlighten me?

Regards,

FireDancer
