Hi everyone,

Sorry if someone else has already brought this up- I did do a forum search to check and didn't see any other forums discussing this problem....

Since yesterday, I've been trying to use the "web term search" feature on the ProZ website (www.proz.com/wts) and each time I enter a term, I am automatically directed to www.logosdictionary.com with a message at the top saying, "This domain is for sale. Request quote."

Is anyone else experiencing this? Or is it just me?

Thanks in advance for any answers,
Sara

browser? Nov 30, 2010

Thanks Steve,

Can I ask what browser you use? I'm trying with both Firefox and GoogleChrome.

Sigh, ok, it's me then Nov 30, 2010

Thank you David.

I also have the latest version of Firefox, but still no dice. I haven't changed any settings at all or done anything different with my computer and of course my Anti-Virus program is up-to-date and has been run recently...

so I'll just have to figure out what's wrong with my computer!

Thanks again!
Sara

Have you tried clearing your browser? Nov 30, 2010

Hi Sara,

Did you try Ctrl + F5? If it's still a problem, see if you can take a screenshot of what you see when you try to go to http://www.proz.com/wts and submit it as a support request. Staff may be able to help diagnose the problem.

Uncheck logos Nov 30, 2010

in the dictionary list. I tried with all diccionaries checked, and it directs me to logos site, where I find the same note "This domain is for sale..."
Unchecking logos lets you browse over other resources. I'm using latest Firefox.
