Default AOL Users & Mapquest

Any AOL users tried accessing Mapquest recently? I can access it w/o problems on Internet Explorer but if I select Mapquest on AOL, click on maps or directions, sits there.

F-16,

Did a quick route, zip code to zip code and it worked fine on AOL. My AOL has been a little crazy lately.

What are you getting when you try to bring up an address in mapquest? If you get the mapquest screen on your display but the actual map does not display in the window or you get a red X in the map window then you have an issue with a trusted site. This is normally not a problem found on open sites such as AOL but found in companies that want to block access to sites.

Have you increased your security levels on your computer or added a firewall or even made any changes to your computer recently? Look there first.

Mapquest has a link to another source to provide the actual map that you see on the screen and this link must be trusted to see the map. This is very rare for home users to have a problem with but was a common for the company I use to work for. This is the reason I asked about any security changes on your home system.

Default No Clue

I just went on Mapquest like I normally "used" to do and it works. I have no idea what, why, where, .... you get my drift. Anyway it's working fine.

Thanks
