In the past few weeks, I've stumbled across an interesting problem. Web pages that colleagues have been able to open in a PC-based browser don't seem to open in either of my Mac browsers.

So it's unlikely (though not impossible) that my computer has been hacked by someone with a rabid aversion to Macs and the inability to make their hack work well.


I've run into web pages that have no normal text but are built around fancy ActiveX controls and/or Java applets. With those 'helper' programs deactivated, I get either a blank page or the 404 error. If I go into my browser options, turn on ActiveX/Java, and re-launch the browser, the pages load correctly. Could this be your problem?
