phenomena

[pedsto]

two new happenings. my isp is ispwest. normal dial up sign on is brrrt, brrrt, "verifying password" silence, logging on to compuserve. system seemed to have lost my password recently. Re-entered and now the sign in routine is
brrrt, brrrt, verifying password, silence and a NEW RAS message "Connecting to
ISP West, Authentication Complete, please wait. And the wait is about 10 -15 seconds. Then CS log in as before. Any thoughts about the new message?

this started a couple of months ago. highlight web address and launch selected text. my browser starts and then a message appears on the Oz screen: "file not found Error attempting to execute ....the URL. And the OZ screen stays on. But the browser continues to come up in the background with the URL. If I click OK in the error message, the Oz screen goes away and the browser works fine for the URL. Something seems not integrated correctly.

Thanks, sorry the Oz forum has gone away. Certainly do not understand Compuserve's decision. You would think they would want to keep all the customers they can.
