OK so my son plays a game on binweevils.com, and all of a sudden the game doesn't load properly. If I log in as me or a guest user on the same Mac, the game works perfectly. I've run Cocktail and Onyx on his account and the problem is still there, any ideas what I can delete to make his web site work again? There must be something corrupted in his user account somewhere but I don't know what it can be. All other sites work perfectly in Safari. Any help appreciated...

Sorry I should have said, that is part of what Cocktail does when it runs on Pilot mode.

Gah! It was the Parental Controls doing it, I added the URL to the 'OK sites list' and it now works perfectly again. Very weird that it's worked OK for so long though, why I've had to sort it out all of a sudden is a mystery.

Thread closed!
