Anybody else having an issue view posts here? Every so often, I click on the post and it starts taking my to the page but before it loads it takes me to a blank page where it just seems to get stuck. Damn advertisers! Damn Flash! Damn Technology! {I know, it pays the bills, so I can't bash it too much!} It's just that sometimes they think something is really cool, don't test it out and bingo, there is a problem.

The link on the status bar shows this. It just recently started happening, thing, I think just this weekend and today...

I have been having the same issue of late...sometimes to the point I have to close the browser and open a new one just to get back to where I was.

I noticed it yesterday. My guess is that an ad is causing the problem, but I could be wrong.

Maybe it is an ID10T error.

Just kidding. It was doing it to me today too.

I've been having the same problem. Not that I know anything about IT stuff, but when it's trying to 'download items' and gets stuck, the http down in the corner of my screen is saying something about analytics. I figured it was one of the ads messing things up.

More work for Dad, but glad it's not my computer!

I'm pretty sure it's an ad just by looking at the mediaforge site. A while back this was the headline for mediaforge: mediaFORGE Launches Interactive Widget Ads I wonder if they are staring to filter out now. You can see that the link has some of your browser settings, probably to tell them if the ad is capable of being shown or not...

they've identified the ad that causes the problem and hopefully I'll get an update shortly on it getting purged from the system.
