But as you described in an earlier post, I noticed that I began to experience this problem of no page loading after installing Norton firewall. And the problem is only on this site. Every other site I regularly go to loads just fine.

My frustration level is reaching the point now where I will probably greatly reduce my visits to Flytalk. And I was so enjoying this place, too!
After more testing, the solution I cam up with seems to only work 70% of the time for me. I think the problem is with specific adds perhaps. I still have some isolation test to conduct to solve the problem. Although, like you, I think the easiest solution is just not to visit FT as often and then I don't have to deal with the issue. FT should be Norton and McAfee friendly as this is what most of the world uses and if they dont use Internet Security or Firewall, then they need to get with the program before something nasty happens to their computers.
