Forum not compatible with Opera 11?

I haven't been able to get in for the last few days using the new version of Opera!

I get a pretty picture which requests I click anywhere on the page. On doing this I get a page rejecting my IP address.

It would appear to be a Firewall problem.

I'm in now using Avant browser!

You probably haven't set your browser to accept cookies or rather session cookies.

All set up to accept cookies before and now and using Opera 11.01.

Still get this message;

"Sorry, Connection from your IP Address is not allowed!"

Well if you can get trough fine with another browser then I guess it doesn't have anything to do with your ip but the way browser tries to connect. In any why I'd suggest different browser. Like Firefox.

Surely, that's not the point!
I'm in but how many members aren't due to the same problem?

Not that many I imagine. Elgeneral tried with Opera 11.01, and I have that browser on my PC as well, and I have no problem getting in with it. So it seems something specific to your browser configuration. My Opera config is default and I am not having that issue.
And it has nothing to do with your ip either, it is just default message that firewall gives when you don't meet simple requirements to get in. Like you are flooding the page with too many requests or you can't accept cookies.

Eh, now come on now! Stop trying to shoot the messenger!

I'll try various options tomorrow, ZoneAlarm, Avast etc.

It's strange that I could log in at 1800 hrs but not at 2100 hrs!

No, we are grateful for the feedback. It is just that there isn't that big of a chance that this affected too many people.
You could actually also try deleting all your cookies in Opera and then try again. But as long as we have confirmations from others that is not all Opera users that would have an issue I honestly won't worry much. And in your case you can always use different browser.
