Here's an example of the message I get. In this case, I copied the link address from the attachment block to the address bar, and prefixed it appropriately.

Any help deeply appreciated!

Generally, these are the ones that use photo numbers in the later portion of the link name. In most cases, this also happens if I transfer the link name to the address bar and precede it with the proper http:// and tdu prefixes.

I guess there is something my computers (all three of them) don't like but I have yet to figure out just what. If anyone has a clue, I'd be more than happy to learn of a fix for this, but neither I nor my sons, both of whom are MIS specialists, have so far found an answer. This is something I have had as a problem only during the past few weeks.
