Do I Check Off This Box???

While working on my site this popped up. Sometimes I'm given the option of the box to check and sometimes not. Just wondering if this is something that I should do.

A second question if you don't mind :D

My hubby was trying to look at my site the other day and he couldn't view any of the galleries because they were all showing up as little boxes with X's. He clicked on one anyway and a big box popped up saying "Your trying to enter a web site hosted by smugmug". Why would this happen?

    Mary, Can you let us know what browser, version, and OS you are using? Have you tried a different browser to see if it shows the same behavior?

    I was on Firefox .. latest version with W7. Tired it on IE, but it wouldn't even load my site. Waited and refreshed, but no go with it. That has me confused too.

    That checkbox is something your browser is showing you. It's a feature many browsers are adding to combat bad sites that pop up a never ending stream of alerts trying to prevent you from leaving. Some browsers show it on every alert a site pops up, some show it only on the second alert from a single page, others show it after 2 alerts with the same text. No matter what you choose, it is only ever going to impact you in that browser.

    I understand why it's doing it now :D
