Ever since that link started appearing in the top right corner, the forum crashes my browser almost every time I use it. Pages start behaving oddly, with areas turning black, and sometimes it affects the whole desktop and I end up having to reboot.
I don't know for sure that it's the new link but the coincidence is too hard to ignore.
Anyone else having this problem?
it might have helped if you actually had mentioned which browser & version you're using.
members have reported problems with IE & firefox. i'm using opera 10 and i have noticed "issues" with the ad, but they're mere annoyances, not problems, for me. that is because opera has this awesome feature: "Site Specific Preferences". users can disable plugins on specific pages. users can also utilize the built-in adblocking capability as well as flashbock by extension.
I'm using IE7. Haven't actually tried it on Firefox but I might.
Are the problems others have reported similar to mine?
i don't remember the details exactly, but i think crashing did happen for some....Quote:

Vdat was also having problems in that he was not able to post.
Sackett did post a message saying the matter was being looked into by admin
Thanks for the replies guys.
If there have been other reports and it's being looked into then presumably there'll be a fix forthcomimg.
I sure hope so. It is a real pain :?
I get no problems when browsing the site with IE7 (7.0.5730.11 to be exact). What system you're running? XP SP3 here.
Do you have all the updates from windows update?
I'd also recommend scanning your system for viruses (with for example)
I have IE7 and Vista
I have Norton and Zone Alarm. No viruses.
Whenever I come here the page freezes up.
Here and only here.
IE 7.0.5730.13, XP SP3 (or whatever's the most up to date - I lose track). I use a whole battery of malware checkers (Norton 2009, ESET, Malwarebytes, AdAware, SUPERAntiSpyware) and my system's clean.Quote:

the advert thing might be interfering with a particular addon you are using in IE, i had alot of issues with particular addons and similar fold down things like on famousboard.
try disabling some unrequired addons to see if that is any help, otherwise i dont know
Can only make a negative remark, I'm a whore when it comes
to browsers using IE7;FireFox;Chrome and I'm experiencing
no probs at all. :dontknow:
