I can't believe I can use the client on the laptop again. I wind up sitting in the dining room until Angus goes to sleep (the better to see him trying to sneak down the hallway) and most of the time I try to make a post, I get "cannot contact server." I was thinking it was some setting on on the laptop I didn't know about, because I would give up and try the PC in the bedroom; it almost always worked, when I had been trying on the laptop for several hours. Very frustrating! I just tried the last post here in the dining room, and it went through! So is it the servers, or my machine?

Hmm... I know some of the personal firewalls do cause problems like that. It's as if they're trying to protect you from yourself a lot of the times, which is really annoying.

As a free user, you won't get connected to the faster servers, which is why sometimes it times out and does nothing. But once the entry has been handed off by the other lj clients, it "should" be posted immediately.

Weird...
