Some PWP Counters are unviewable with Internet Explorer on Windows XP SP2

Microsoft has disabled support for the XBM graphic format in Windows XP Service Pack 2 in order to avoid security issues.

This breaks the counters supplied with SBC Personal Web Pages for

• Prodigy Classic
• Prodigy Internet

It does not affect the counters supplied with

• Prodigy BuildingBlocks
• SBC Central (Southwest Bell)
• SBC West (PacBell and Nevada Bell)
• SBC North (Ameritech)

No counters are provided for SBC East (SNET) Personal Web Pages.

SBC would like to thank our user community for bringing this matter to our attention.

While we continue to investigate this issue, Prodigy Internet members may choose to replace the affected counters with the BuildingBlocks counter. This will reset your page counts.

To replace the counter, change the IMG SRC you use from
<img src="http://pages.prodigy.net:8989/your_name/your_name.xbm" alt="counter" />
to
<img src="http://pages.prodigy.net/cgi-bin/commoncgi/counter.cgi?cname=your_name@sbcglobal.net&style=LEDGOLD" alt="counter" />.
