^ Yes, apparently it's caused by the pop-up blocker feature on a personal firewall (usually "CA Personal Firewall") - just disable the Firewall Popup Window Blocker and you should be able to post normally. ------------- What? |

You should need to disable the whole firewall, just the Popup blocker option ------------- What? |

Yeah, it's kinda risky taking down your whole firewall. That leaves you quite exposed to viruses and stuff.
