DNB free access - problem

Legg inn av Gjest » 23 sep 2005 16:27:02

Just a quick note in case others have a problem getting access.
You have to "register" for free access. You enter your email address and
then it is supposed to send a confirmation email with a link in it that you can
click and that confirms you and allows you access.

However I signed up with my AOL email and never got a confirmation email.
When I tried to register again with that same email it said "you are already
registered" and yet when I tried to access the free pages it said "You have
not confirmed". So I was stuck in limbo.

So I registered again with a second email addr I have. This one was on
Yahoo email. That time I DID get the confirm email and was able to access the
free pages once I confirmed using that second email addr.

My spam folder is empty, so perhaps AOL is blocking the email in a "bad
site" list.
Either that or maybe Oxford University Press doesn't like to send to AOL
accounts :)

Barbara go to _www.yahoo.com_ (http://www.yahoo.com) or some other free
email site and you should be able to sign up for a free account.
