Hi

Annoyingly the link I had working well for this site for weeks *has
suddenly not worked for two/three days.

I had the choice of quite a few maps around the world.

Any thoughts chaps? I think it has happened before to others IIRC

It was:

https://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/wxmap_cgi/index.html

No problem for me, though Firefox (as did IE8) didn't like its security
certificate.

I got this message:
Redirecting you tohttps://www.fnmoc.navy.mil/wxmap_cgi/index.html
Then I had to accept the security exception. *I am using the Mozilla
browser.

I found Opera browser the best for accessing that site. It gave you an
idea what to do next. Worst was IE. Firefox wasn't all that helpful.

But no matter how well I saved my cookies I always had to go to the
redirect to get some more. What might have happened to the OP is that
the new site has reasonable cookie handling for civilian pages access
these days? and the OP deleted his cookies in the Microsoft third
partyware lifeline it needs. Spybot or an AV?
