It seems that this forum is at it again. Whenever I got to a link on this site, any page that has the current Microsoft add thingy that says stuff like JTECH and HLKB causes the page to not load.
A conspiracy by whom? MS? I'd think that if it were a conspiracy of any sort that it would only happen on the "contributing member" ad If anything it's a "conspiracy" from billy. The page stops loading after that ad appears, well then what have you got but that ad to click on?

Originally posted by Crashed_Again Are you saying this is a conspiracy to get us to become members? This isn't the first time something like this has happened.
I can assure you that it is no conspiracy. I am actively working on getting this fixed. Thanks for the patience.
I thought I was nuts or something. Thank god someone else posted. Seems to only happen in galeon/mozilla. Either that or I haven't got the banner add in konqueror. Weird
ok now it's the ONLY ad i see now, on EVERY page, it doesnt even reload, it's just continuous. It doesnt affect all of the pages loading, just sometimes like when i hit the BACK button but it's an annoying ad (the animation). Maybe i should become a contributing member
