Forum doing WEIRD things.

Every so often, when I click on a topic and "open in new window", rather than opening the designated thread, I get re-directed to Amazon.com in the new window.

This most recent time I logged into the forums the "prillian" window that pops up went to the Amazon page, rather that showing who was online, # of posts...etc..etc..

http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/su...496151-5810449
That's the URL it keeps sending me to.

Does anyone else have this problem? I've checked my machine for spyware/adware using spybot search and destroy and Ad-Aware SE. Neither found anything.

Yeah, I am trying to work out the problem. Waiting for some new hardware to arrive so I can move the forum to a Linux 1U Server. Waiting on 512MB Ram, 18GB SCSI and a Second processor... should be here soon... I hope

Seems pretty good, although every once and awahile I click on a link and it tells me the page is unavailable. Other then that seems great.

Very fine job!

thanks mamisano,
yes, it does seem to run a lot faster than it has been doing for a while now.

I hope you get the hw upgrades soon.

Re: Forum doing WEIRD things.

Forum response time is better, but I'm still getting re-directed to amazon every so often.

Re: Forum doing WEIRD things.

IE 6 and XP

It does the same at work, with the same setup.
