Forbidden???

Forbidden?? Doesn't that sound horrible. Forbidden to view my posts!!! That IS horrible!!! LOL I was trying to find the "fix" for this issue. I have been directed in so many different areas and several times back into a loop. I am totally lost on this. Feedblitz is saying it's a Blogger problem but I can't find anything on Blogger about it or even how to fix it. And I'm still trying to understand why I have to fix it when it wasn't me that broke it!!! Shocker, huh?? LOL

I messed up my computer so bad one time that it had to be totally restored. Now when I hear the word temporary to me it means something that isn't permanent. Many icons are stored in the temporary file. I was in that file one time and I was deleting some of those temporary icons. I kept finding one after another and I just assumed everything in there was an icon from some random site I had been to. SO I deleted the whole Temporary folder. I didn't think anything of it until I rebooted. I lost every thing. I didn't even have a mouse!!! Now why would you put a mouse in a temporary folder??? Let alone the software that runs the sound and makes the screen come on, etc. What a nightmare. The computer did get restored but everything I had saved on it was lost. But that was OK, I was just glad to have my computer back. So now as far as I'm concerned I NEVER go that far into the system of my computer. I figure the computer can take care of itself. When it gets too many icons in it's temporary file it automatically deletes them. I'll just let it do it's job from now on. But this time I did NOT break it.

I am in the process of getting Feedburner installed on my blog so I will be asking all you subscribers to abandon Feedblitz and go to Feedburner. They usually publish their posts in the early afternoon too so you can catch me earlier in the day. Lucky you!!! LOL

I do have a question here. Are you getting my automated emails from Feedblitz? I read that this was suppose to take care of itself. I've gotten mixed messages on this problem and I just need to know if you got your email reminder from Feedblitz?

Thank you for your patience with this,
Wanda

    Hi Wanda,

    I usually get my feedblitz updates a day after you post, so today's update showed that you had 3 new posts, up through the little kid's birthday card using the "All in the Family" set. Hope that helps!

    Thank you Deepa, that was good news! I still have not gotten an email and I subscribe to my own blog. Thanks again, Wanda

    I received my update from you thru Feedblitz today--I usually get my updates late at night (I'm Pacific Time). Also, another blogger suggested to just click on those Forbidden links and when you do, the blog opens up like it should, but at the top there was a special box where you hit a link to "subscribe"--not sure why--but I went back to all the ones I'd received, opened them up, and I guess I essentially re-subscribed to all of them! lol! It looks like they had been doing upgrading or something?? Anyway, that's MY story!

    Maybe your site is "forbidden" because it is SUCH a temptation for us to go out and buy all the stamps, papers, etc. in the hopes that we can CASE all your wonderful creations! LOL!!! Sorry, I'm feeling silly this morning. Thank goodness, I haven't had any issues with your site and hope it's cleared up for everyone else soon. Susan :-)

    Looks like mine is working the same way. That's because I have Feedblitz set to update just once a day. So today's (Tue.)email from Feedblitz has Wanda's Monday post with the apple card.

    I've been getting mine, wanda. They still seem to come at about the same time each day....in the middle of the night. I still wonder what was in the "FORBIDDEN" one. I guess I'll never find out! :)

    I have been receiving your updates. I did get an email with the "forbidden" on it but was not sure where it was from so I just deleted it. There has been no problem since.

    I have been getting my regular feedblitz updates the way I always have. I did get the "forbidden one", deleted it and went on my merry way.

    I think I usually get my emails at night -- I'll have to pay more attention. I do only get 1 per day. It is separate from other feed blitz posts ( I get some that say 12 newsletters with 14 new articles). That's always a bit overwhelming to me so I go to the individual posts like yours first! It was funny to read about your computer experiences! I know, not funny to you, but funny from an "I've done that before" standpoint! My husband tells me not to "touch anything!" Jeanne
