Just tried emailing and had a response by return - "Historical Directories are incompatible with AOL. Try Internet Explorer"

Well I did and it works fine on there! :)

I wrote to the Historical Directories team back in July about the problems of their site with AOL.

Their response ...

"We've had a few people who use AOL complaining recently that they can't access anything. If you use Internet Explorer as your browser, you will find everything works well."

I found that the site doesn't work with the AOL browser but if I use IE it works OK. Yesterday it didn't always let me browse a directory but it seemed OK just now when I checked

Is anyone else having problems with this site? I am becoming very frustrated - tried yesterday and again this morning - just can't get a directory to read! Thought my connection might be too slow, but it seems alright with everything else.
