ISSUE

[Jack_The_Ripper]

I love this site, it it helps me out a lot, but it doesn't love me! Every once and a while when I close my browser while on this site, it locks up and keeps opening more and more windows... They all say the oscar spot on them, but they never load, I get about 70-80 duplicates in about 15 seconds and then I'm frozen. It locks up so badly that I have to crash it. It doesn't always happen. But I'd say it happens 1 out of 10 times. Sometimes I'll even be on a different site, with this site closed, and then you guessed it, all of a sudden the oscar spot pops up 100 times and I have to crash my computer? Did I get some sort of virus from this site? I just really wish I could correct it, as it gets VERY annoying.

Still love this site though, even after all the hell it puts me through.

Sounds more like a browser issue.

what browser do you use,,I use firefox

I would say it's local on your computer. Like Gerry I use FireFox never had any issues.

Hmmmmm weird... i use IE at home and at work and never seen that happen.... sounds like a local internet issue

[Alan]

could you have picked up a trojan or browser hijacker somewhere ?
i would update your antivirus and anti spyware software and run a system scan

[Gabe]

ye, what he said

I run mozilla firefox, and its great. This is my only issue. All my virus and spyware programs are up to date...

Weird stuff.

Boy that's really strange. I had some issues a month or so ago with some malware I couldn't get rid of I found this site and one of the members was able to help me straighten out the problem they were very helpful.
