[olug] pbskids.org and pbskidsplay.org

I tried User Agent Switcher and tried out Internet Explorer 6,7,8 but the
when signing into pbsKidsPlay.org, it loads to about 95% but does nothing,
not even the error dialog mentioned. Just has the background image.

Are you sure you trialled pbsKidsPlay.org (a pay for site) using Ubuntu 12?

Using Ubuntu 10.04 LTS - the Lucid Lynx - released in April 2010 and
supported until April 2013.
