Cannot access Find A Grave. Anyone else having this problem?
Hi there everyone. Happy holidays.

I have been trying to access Findagrave.com for at least three days.
Every time I try, I get a server error. I've tried every link I have to the site,
but nothing works.

Would a few of you try and see if you can get to the site? I have looked for complaints
on Google, but don't see any, so I'm wondering if my computer is afraid of tombstones. ;-)

Thanks ahead of time to anyone who tries!

2. I tried it and guess what?
Oops! This link appears broken.
DNS error occurred. Server cannot be found.


AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGGGG! I have no idea of why this is happening. Maybe I need to go to the computer forum?

3. Well, I finally got in. Lurked all around my software,
and finally put in a rule to allow Findagrave.com in an anti-malware program,
and bingo, it worked. Have had the anti-malware program for years and all of a sudden
it does this? I'm going to have to adopt a five year old so he or she can help me
with my computer. I'm too old to learn this stuff. And too lazy. ;)
