I've noticed on a couple of different PWSs today (my own included) that when you click on the various tabs, like "My Calendar",you get a message that says "Direct Access to this Page is Prohibited." I got this message when I clicked from the .biz/whatever homepage. Is it a system wide problem or am I having my own personal computer issue?
 
me too!I tried my site and a few others that I know of, they all had the same problem. I'm on my way out in a bit (monthly team meeting) so if it's not fixed tonight, I'll give a call to HO. Hopefully they are already working on it.
 
The PWS assistant times out very quickly, faster than the CC for some reason. If you are inactive on your PWS for a brief period of time (I don't know what the time-out is set to) you will get the direct link error or Page Not Found error.

All you need to is go back to Consultant's Corner and go back into the PWS.
 
And by the way, be careful if you are e-mailing from your contact list on the site...I e-mailed several people to announce the new Wed Reg and everyone got it several times...I even lost some people on my mailing list because they were so mad at me SPAMMING them! E-mailed HO and they have had several complaints, but can't "reproduce the problem". Hmmm....
