There is a problem on my board. Some can't access the posts.

What's going on is there is some damned web site trying to hijack my board and redirect to their own web site - some ridiculous web site where they are trying to sell, of all things, Viagra.

The problem is on the server side. I've alerted them. Your guess is as good as mine as to how long it will take for them to get rid of it.

In the meantime, there is a way to handle it. If you're using the Firefox browser or another browser that accepts the Adblock Pro add-on, install it. It's free. Once you install it, the topic still may not open. If that happens, look at the bottom left of your screen. You will see the URL trying to hijack my board. If you copy that URL and put it into the Adblock Pro filter, that stops it - most of the time.

Another solution that worked for me was to close off the board, start it again, go directly to the forum you want, and instead of clicking on 'view unread posts' or 'view new posts', click on the topic itself and then go to the last page. That worked for me.

Not that I can do anything about it if neither of those work, but let me know.

It's always something!

When I checked a few hours ago it was up and running as a sex site. Just checked and the site is now advertised for sale .
If you have not kept up to date , you have a contact point to show you are owner.

There is an application form there you can apply to. Include your email address of course

I have no idea what makes you think I'm selling my board. It's a hijack, just as I said. With Adblock Plus or perhaps other blocking programs, you can easily filter out that sire, along with the other hijack sites when they occur. That's what I did. Now they don't pop up anymore.

Did you check the link I posted

I just did again and the ad is still there.

I know you can get very obstinate but check out the ad

Yes, I did. It is a total fake. Nobody can sell a domain I've paid for. Those crooks have nothing to do with my domain host. However, since you're waiting for me to be obstinate, feel free to test that and send them however much money they want. I'll need several minutes to finish having my little laugh once you see what you'll end up with.

Those of you who have been checking my board, I really appreciate you telling me what the story is. I have no way of knowing without people telling me if they're still encountering the problem.
