Thanks for that. I got very excited, but it still didnt do the trick. It got me to thinking though, and I checked and I already had the website blocking for Malware Bytes turned off. I even tried turning off my "webroot" protection.
One thing I haven't tried is turning off my VPN(virtual private network), which Discover could be blocking because the IPs sometimes get used for questionable purposes, although any such problems Ive had with my VPN in the past would tell me it's because of my IP is BANNED(craigslist sometimes, and others), and not just do absolutely nothing.
I just find it weird that it used to work for me on my desktop, and doesnt now. It's not really an issue for me now, but I'd imagine this could happen to someone else, being another member mentioned it happened to them on other sites. I'm guessing this thread could help out a number of lurkers if I ever am able to get the page to work again. My computer can't be that unique...can it?
I do appreciate the adblock idea, I really thought that might be it, although I had it on in the past when it worked. I'm trying to think what may have changed since then.
UPDATE: I turned off my VPN(it's a pain, I have it set to disconnect from the network unless the VPN is on, otherwise I may have tried it sooner), and it WORKED.
I know more people are using VPNs these days, and I'm pretty sure I had it turned on in the past when I applied. It likely was that that particular one(PIA "EAST") was the problem. Maybe this will help lurkers or anyone else using VPNs or maybe proxies too. Mind you, this was just a pre-qual page. I likely had my VPN on for actual applications that got accepted, so it appears to be a YMMV by site/IP of the VPN.
