    Strange things are afoot. When I go to the white board, the main (front) page will open for me, but when I go into the forums, it freezes up on me and won't open threads. The strange thing is, it does this with my Netcaptor browser, but when I go to the board using regular Internet Explorer, it will work.

    Now, I thought maybe it was just a problem with Netcaptor, but I never had problems accessing the board before, don't have any problems accessing any other boards or sites, and I can still access Palisades board which is the same type of board as the white board, and I even downloaded Mozilla's Firefox to see if it would work. Not only did Firefox not work, it was WORSE, it froze my whole browser screen up, and I couldn't get out.

    So my question is, what the HELL is going on? Doesn't seem like anyone else is having problems accessing it.

    And yes, my cache has been cleaned. I just don't get it. any ideas?

    Other people have posted on the whiteboard about having problems using browsers other than IE. I'm not computer guru, but an educated guess would be that the whiteboard has been assimilated by the collective known as Microsoft. [img]wink.gif[/img]

    Question

    While we are at it. What web browser do you use, and why do you like it?

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Ah, I see. At least good to hear it isn't just me. I don't spend that much time on the white board anymore anyway, so I guess if I do want to check it out, I will just have to use IE. But that means they have lost even that much more time from me.

    Still strange though, considering Netcaptor works off IE.

    <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">IE is what I use. Why? Because that's what was on the computer, lol, and I've never bothered trying any others.
