I did exactly that. When I used the link, I got the timed out screen, I clicked on the home button and got the same timed out screen again.
I will try using Firefox or IE and see what happens.

Alright so after a very lengthy phone conversation with our family's ISP (internet service provider) (It took over an hour and a 1/2!!!) we came to the conclusion that it is a problem with the web server/router that Petersons is using. He said it had to do with their router waaayyy out in internet world blocking my information from going through. (Or something to that extent. It's hard to understand technical language. lol) The tech guy ran a bunch of tests on my comp that showed I was accessing the site but not connecting. It wasn't my computer, our internet, or the connection. He said normally this kind of thing clears up in a few days, but if it doesn't he said to call Petersons and have them look into it. I will call them if it doesn't work. I'm not sure why some people can access it and I can't but it has to do with server hosts and surfing stuff! IDK!
Well, anyway, at least it is not a problem on my end! I'll let you know how it goes. Thank you very much to all the people who gave me suggestions and ideas! Hopefully this will all clear up soon!
***EDIT*** - I forgot to mention that the tech guy tried accessing it on his computer and couldn't get through either and he wasn't using the same ISP as I was! Wow, how often do you stump the tech guy?!? lol

When I click on Testing and Education Reference Center, I come to a page saying: "You have been idle for too long. Your session has timed out. Click here to resume." But I did log off before leaving the site last time. When I click on the link, I go to what looks like an error page. It won't let me resume. I tried logging off again and accessing again, but it did not work.
I don't know what is wrong.
When I logged off I came to Gale - Home, is that supposed to happen?
Sounds like you and I are having similar problems! lol About going to the gale website when I used to get on it and log off it always took me to that website though that shouldn't be anything to worry about!

Ok. I was just wondering, since it seemed like the problem might have been that I somehow did not log off properly. But I can rule that out now.

That link took me to a similar website, but it required being part of the military to register.

I tried this link and still got the same message. Nothing comes up and it says connection timed out! I didn't get to a screen to try and log in. It seems like any link to Petersons doesn't work for me! Oh, well I guess I'll keep waiting and trying.
