CompuServe access issue

Up until today (3/26) , accessing CompuServe (AOL) mail was not an issue. Now , getting to the site is OK , but when it attempts to access the mail , I get:


Firefox Can’t Open This Page

To protect your security, compuserve.com will not allow Firefox to display the page if another site has embedded it. To see this page, you need to open it in a new window.

What changed overnight? After getting the message , if I click on Mail , it works just fine. There is also a similar message when closing the page , but not every time.

Any clues?

After some testing , it appears that CompuServe/AOL is not allowing Firefox to open the news page that the site initially opens to. It was working fine until the latest Firefox update , So something changed in Firefox that the site does not like. Everything else on the site seems to work OK.
