It's taking ages for my pages to change when I click on something. Think I'll change thread title and see if anyone else is getting it

I'm still getting 'script error' every time I change pages - I'm having to click 4 times to get into anything. Driving me mad. I've checked 'tools' and all the right boxes are checked. It's not happening anywhere else - just this site. Mags x

Hi Jeanette I just got a big ad in the middle of my screen that I couldn't get rid of even when I clicked on the x. I clicked on a thread title and it disappeared and when I clicked on gen topics again it was gone. Juliexx

Not being fummy, but I doubt if Gr would put an ad slap bang in the middle of the screen It also cant be a virus on the site as wed all get it, or at least get a warning from our virus protection Elaine x

Unless you all have downloaded the same pop up i think its ITV experimenting with pop up adds. To be honest if the site had been hacked it would not be a free weekend at a health farm on offer but porn ect. Steve

OK for me. Perhaps you need to block Flash. If you're using IE6, do Tools, Manage Add Ons, Add Ons that have been used by Internet explorer. Look for Schockwave Flash Object where filename is Flash8.ocx. Disable it and OK your way out. It works for me.

yeah! I got that big ad to. Something to do in London. Couldn't close it. I clicked the back button and then it was gone. Very strange Claire
