    Is anyone else having trouble accessing past papers? I can get as far as choosing which year I want, but a soon as I pick a year a white screen appears with the following message:
    Access forbidden!

    You don't have permission to access the requested directory. There is either no index document or the directory is read-protected.

    If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster.

    Error 403

    What is supposed to happen is a popup screen asking for a username and password (student and thunderoad although their may be caps somewhere in that), however if you press cancel instead of putting in a password or have a popup blocker that doesn't allow the password request popup to come up then it may go directly through to the white screen saying that authorisation is required.

    Hope that helps
