That's partly my fault. I had turned off my HOSTS file and forgot to turn it
back on to block adware, malware, popups, etc. Without it, the internet is
intolerable these days.

Now when I goto http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/, I get an error saying that an
object was expected on line 50. Perhaps that is caused by my HOSTS file blocking
something unwanted there, such as an advertising popup URL(?).

If I disregard that error situation, then I can click the "Testers & Conditions"
link and it works OK - at least, without the unwanted advertising popup(s). That
is probably what they were...
