Default Image uploading problems continue

I'm continuing to have problems uploading images to MLU. When clicking on the "Manage Attachments" icon I get a "BLOOP" sound and a notification of "A Pop Up was Blocked". I might get to the next window 1 time out of 50 clicks. Before you all hurriedly fly to your keyboards to tell me to turn my Pop-Up blocker off, I already have, further I have changed my settings to allow all pop ups from the MLU sight. All to no avail. I'm using Kaspersky Internet Security Suite 7.0 (version 7.0.0.125) so I'm current on all updates although I've heard that Kaspersky does have problems in the Windows environment now and then. Keefey has been kind enough to offer to upload any images for me but, of course I'd prefer to solve this riddle. Does anyone have a solution to this problem or know of a back door by-passing the "Manage Attachments" button? Thanks, Derek.

Default Dad gum stoopid cornpooter.

O.K. Even with the jpeg nicely uploaded, well within 700 pixels and the total kbyte range and showing as a current attachment, it doesn't show up in my post.

Jefe, yo no quiero pinche tortugas!


Help anyone?

Default thumbnails

While on the subject of posting images I've noticed that images posted using a URL show in the thread while those that you upload just get a thumbnail.
It's a lot better to have the images show on the threads but if anything happens to the hosting service you lose the images and with the thumbnails it's annoying to have to look at them one at a time.
A question for Geoff, Is there anything you can do about this on your end? The way the old forum handled images was better even if you could just upload one at a time.

Dave, when I get this nonsense sorted out I have a great shot of a Cletrac towing a 3" AA gun during the 20th anniversary celebration of the Army Ordnance Association taken Oct. 12, 1939. Derek.

Seems like you've sorted your trouble there, Sapper? What was it? I confess I've had little time to experiment since I set this up...

Gracias, Cabron.

No, I haven't solved the problem in it's entirety just yet. I was able to post some more pics yesterday by the simple dodge of clicking the "add this URL to list of trusted sites" icon right before hitting the "Manage attachments" button. Yesterday it worked, today it doesn't so I'm not sure what the real problem is. I have also tried clicking the "Allow pop ups during this session" button just before attempting to upload pictures. As I mentioned in my previous post I've changed my settings to allow all pop ups to no avail. Simple access to, and uploading of pictures to MLU has been sporadic since you've changed servers Jefe. Further, the links posted in the "Reply to topic" emails I receive seldom work since the change. I'm going to send a long, detailed email to Kaspersky outlining these issues and see if they can come up with a fix. Derek.
