Posted on 10 March 2012 by Kari Gibson

If you are still having problems coming on my blog or blocked- don’t worry, it’s an easy fix. You have to clear your browser cookies. If you have no idea what I’m talking about …. read this post!

I have only heard stories of people getting their bank accounts or personal information getting hacked, but I never thought a crazy blog would suffer hacking and viruses. First of all, I apologize for the craziness the past month here and want you to know I hired a professional web manager to clean things up. I’m 100% virus free, but a few of you have told me you still can’t get back to my site. I promise that will be an easy fix and a Cookie 101 lesson. A week ago, I thought a cookie was filled with nuts and chocolate chips, but actually they are also in our computer.

So, if you are still getting the”block message” from viewing My Crazy Adoption from top to bottom and can’t read my posts- then do this…

Clear your browser cookies, then again open the link. If still get block message then let me know.
