Alternatively, you can avoid all of this by using the Pathfinder Web
Client -- this is a web-based version of Pathfinder that require no
downloading, installation, or search library updates. Its a little
less flexible, in that you have no control of which searches are on
buttons, but updates are automatic.
Give it a try at

When you install Pathfinder 3.0, the included search library is

immediately upgrade your search library. The problems you and Robin
cite, now that I recall the search changes since Pathfinder 3.0 was
released, are almost certainly due obsolete searche files.
To update your search files, follow the instructions at
. After
performing this download, you must update the searches associated
with buttons, e.g. QRZ and DXS. This procedure is described in

I acknowledge that this process could be more automated -- the
original Pathfinder design assumed that users would update searches
themselves, and directly exchange the files, rather than rely on a
centralized repository that a few people maintain. I do plan a
major
Pathfinder update that will make search library updating a
completely
automatic process.

I find that I can bring up QRZ.com OK but it does not put the
callsign that I have entered into the search window and find it. I
have to type it in again and do the search from there. The same
thing happens with BUCK.COM, WM7D works fine. DXC R gives me a 404
Object not found error, DXS gives me an Internal Server Error, DXM
gives me a 404 error. When I type in my own callsign in the
Pathfinder window, the pop up site that comes up is Deja (very
strange for a W3 call) clicking on Deja gives me a 400 Bad Request
error.

Can't be that Dave. I access qrz.com almost every day
by typing the
URL into my web browser, with no problems. It is only
when I try to
access it with Pathfinder that I get the message "You are not
authorised to view this page" But for the record, I did
change the
security settings, with no effect

Pathfinder is subject to the security settings maintained by

To verify this, start Internet Explorer and display
. If you get the "you're not authorized..."
message, then modify security settings as suggested
in the next
paragraph. If qrz.com works fine, then my hypothesis
is incorrect.
To change security settings from within Internet
Explorer, click on
its Tools menu, and select the "Internet Security"
tab. You can use
as a test case -- if you've sufficiently
loosened
security to the point where Internet Explorer will
display this
page,
then then Pathfinder should be able to display QSL
information
pages.
Let me know how it goes...
