     Hi Mike

     Correct: It has nothing to do with security settings. I have in the
     meantime used IE 6.0 with normal settings and it works. But with Opera
     and Mozilla I can still open no links. It's also no question of
     javascript deactivated as with Opera and Mozilla I can replay games
     with all online PGN viewers. As already mentioned, I get the following
     message from Opera after the start of Sarah's page:

     "The server tried to set an illegal cookie. The combination of
     the server's hostname and the domain attribute for this cookie is not
     acceptable, and the cookie has therefore been rejected. You might want to
     ask the site's Webmaster to set legal cookies."

     No idea what's wrong with this site as I have the browser set to
     "cookies enabled".
