Search Feature in Google for the Forums

Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong

Okay, I'm trying to find a thread I remember, but can't quite locate. Site search says - Search in google for topics in this forum. I do. Enter keywords. Brings up the VERY thread I'm looking for! I'm happy! Then it says.. << Either we require login from users from your ISP because of abuse, or the thread is marked members only. Please login and then back up to view.>> I log in (and note - I'm a member, coz I'm posting here!) - I back up - I click on it again, I get the same message, I log back in, I back up, I go in a loop. I get frustrated. I leave... WHAT the heck am I doing wrong? Other people seem to be able to use Google to search the forums without a problem.. so I've obviously got something set somewhere that prevents me from using what seems to be a practical way to search - if only it would let me in! :) Help!

Well - my thread was moved, so obviously it no longer makes any sense. In other words - the message I've received for months (but haven't complained about) says -

<< Either we require login from users from your ISP because of abuse, or the thread is marked members only. Please login and then back up to view.>>

I log in - I AM a member - It takes me to the control panel.. I back up... I click on the thread - I get the same message, one big crazy circle.

Ironically, I was looking for information for me and two others to attend the conference and it looks like I landed in the right place anyways.

Still a little ticked about the search thing... anyone who can figure it out - sure would love to hear it.

The thread may have been moved or deleted. If that's the case, you'll get the 'log in' message in place of a 404. Send the URL to me in stickymail and I'll take a look.
