For the last month, when I click on a subject in the forumn I get nothing. If I click on the lastest rsponse in the right side I go right there? It all worked great until about a month ago.

The fact that you were able to post puts you ahead of those that cannot even log in. The forums had a software upgrade recently and sounds like you need to delete the old site cookies and history from your computer. Here’s are a couple of past threads that may help in your case though. http://forums.y-blocksforever.com/Topic107933.aspx http://forums.y-blocksforever.com/Topic107911.aspx

Tom, Ted, That was what was happening to me to. All I needed to do was click the refresh arrow on my computer. It fixed everything. I think the site is great, I'm just a dummy when it comes to using a computer. Had to get a 6 year old to help me. If all else fails my son said to turn your computer off then back on to let it reboot, sometimes this will fix things. Larry Short

The refresh thing worked for me too.....thanks much for sharing that info. I do love this site and learned a lot using it, but why, I wonder, is it that every time some "improvement" is put into place, there are problems? I don't mean to criticize ---- I appreciate all the behind the scenes work that makes it all possible, but frankly I thought it was just fine before the changes.

Tom,
You might mention what operating system you're using (not everyone is using Winblows) and browser. (Internet Explorer [IE], Firefox, Opera, Safari[MAC], etc.
If you're using Win XP, it's time to upgrade.
Regardless of the operating system, you'll likely get the least amount of problems using Firefox.
USCERT has reported so many problems with IE that they have recommended using an alternate brownser for quite some time.
https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/current-activity/2014/04/28/Microsoft-Internet-Explorer-Use-After-Free-Vulnerability-Being US-CERT is aware of active exploitation of a use-after-free vulnerability in Microsoft Internet Explorer. This vulnerability affects IE versions 6 through 11 and could allow unauthorized remote code execution. US-CERT recommends that users and administrators review Microsoft Security Advisory 2963983 (link is external) for mitigation actions and workarounds. Those who cannot follow Microsoft's recommendations, such as Windows XP users, may consider employing an alternate browser. For more details, please see VU#222929.
In any case, if you're using Win7 you'll have a good browsing experience with the latest Firefox, (with ADBLOCK Plus installed) , ensure that you have Windows autoupdates ON (default) and the latest JAVA installed.
I have been using this site with OpenSuSE Linux & Firefox installed on my computer and everything works flawlessly. [I don't do windoes!]
Regards,
Rick

You might give Firefox a try.......Or Chrome!
Either works fine, I prefer Firefox but you can have all three and switch around as you like.
Firefox has the best and largest choice of browser add-ons.

Rick
