Windows XP

Hi all,

I have been away for a few months from this forum, so maybe this topic has been posted already.
Since I have Windows XP on my computer, I can't view the website (www.tranceaddict.com) anymore. When I try to surf to the page, I got a message in which I'm asked if I want to open or to save the file (the website with other words). If I open it, notepath appears with rubbish. I just discovered I still can view the forum. Anyone who has the same problem?

Greeetz,

Gloomy

Hmmm....almost sounds like there's a special file association between Notepad and the web address (don't ask me how that could have happened but that's what it sounds like from what you've decribed).
Open up Windows Explorer, then go to Tools --> Folder Options --> Click the 'File Types' button. (I'm assuming this cause I don't have XP) See if you can find the TrancEaddict web address in that big list of file associations. I would just delete it if you find it.
That 'should' clear it up...
