QUOTE (Kid-Wolf @ Oct 21 2008, 01:52 AM)Also, to clairify things I was using IE7 when this happened. Also, the laptop is fairly new, and it even has the McAfee protection system on it. So I have no idea about that at all though. Although, it could of been something my mother did, but that's just a guess since she uses that thing more then I do though.
I would advice using Firefox (or any other browser) as IE7 is not secure anyway. I also use McAfee so that shouldn't be causing you the problems. If worst comes to worst, just install the Adblock Add-on for FireFox. That will surely stop the popup.
As a bit of extra safety, I would scan your laptop for malware/spyware. Get Ad-Aware or Spybot (they are both free programs). Those programs should remove any malicious software that could have caused this problem.
QUOTE (Kid-Wolf)As for the avitar setup it whouldn't show it at all when I was on the boards though on that laptop only. Although it like the site had it problems as well though, with that issue.
You know, this weekend I had problems seeing peoples' avatars. I thought it was just my computer being rubbish or some server-related issue. In any case the problem resolved itself. If you had problems seeing your avatar and they are now gone perhaps it was because the site was being dodgy. That's the best piece of advice I can offer on this matter.
