1. In McAfee Personal Firewall, Select Personal Firewall Plus.
2. Click View the Internet Application List.
3. Right-click the name of the program you wish to allow and select Allow Full Access.
If you don’t see the name of the program listed, click Allow New Application and enter the full path of where the application is loaded. Example: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe
I don't have McAfee, so I don't know if this works or not, I just copied and pasted. If this doesn't work, maybe someone with McAfee can help you.

It's sorta hard to tell how to fix this without more details, but my guess is it's from a security program. Do you have Zone Alarm installed? Norton? McAfee?
yes, I am not good at explaining computers. I do think it's a security issue and I have MacAfee

Matt, thanks so very much, now I can get into my personal website email, which I've been locked out of. Kudos to you! warmly, Maureen
