Goodbye AV UK add url

[webgeneral]

The add url for Altavista UK now redirects to the .com add url page. Does this mean the end of submitting url's direct to AV UK?

[nicebloke]

It's showing up for me, on the bottom left, near 'developers'

[uk.altavista.com...]

[webgeneral]

Oh no it isn't when I click on that link it just loads the same page and the other link [add-url.altavista.com...] takes you to the .com add url.

[nicebloke]

Ahhh with you now.

[add-url.altavista.com...]

This page looks horrendous on mac.

[nicebloke]

and indeed no add url box

[webgeneral]

That means they will rely solely on filtering the co.uk sites from the AV.com add url database, so no more .com submissions to AV UK.

[nicebloke]

Well this [rrfierce.com] is what I get. Fab!

I hope that this will help with submissions.
The past few weeks/months have been a problem - almost as if new submissions have been on hold. ;)

[carlwright]

Well that's an informative page nicebloke!

[nicebloke]

Yup!

Still doing it too. Ok in NS, but not IE.

Re the submit page -

DAYS later, I just checked again, and apparently AV are discriminating against Mac users running IE - checked it on different machines - it's a mess - what are they playing at?
