Does anyone know how to fix this black screen I keep getting on VMK? I've never gotten it before until yesterday, which is INCREDIBLY INOPPORTUNE, considering that the Slide event is today!!
I posted this yesterday asking for help, but Mods moved it for some reason. I don't know why. I have Windows XP, and so that Sticky for Windows ME users won't help me.
I tried deleting all of my temporary internet files to try and reset VMK, but it didn't work. Does anyone have any hints at all how to fix this, because I really want to partake in today's events!

That's odd. When the Everest ride even happened, they were out on the same day.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR! This is so annoying! And I can't just sit here and watch it for much longer.....

Hey! I think I found a way to fix this everyone!
If you have IE, open it up, and go to "Tools", then "Internet Options...". Click the buttons that say "Delete Cookies..." and "Delete Files...". This will delete all of the files saved on your computer of websites you've been to - including a bugged VMK. I'm pretty sure the Cookies are what made the black screen, but I deleted the files too, just to make sure. It took about 5 minutes, but finally teh VMK logo showed up on the page like normal after I deleted these files.
Hopefully this helps some people! :)

3. Copy the www2.... adress
4. Paste the adress into normal browser
