In the browser, IE in your case, there should be a 'settings' option to click to do things to IE (or any other browser) like deleting cookies and browsing data, or setting up privacy stuff, et al.
There you should find 'extensions' which may or may not contain that horrible bit of advertising software and from where you may, or may not, be able to delete it. I hope someone who uses IE can come 'interpret'. |

--browser update--
Aloha - I'm a geek with no time to fix her own problem so hopefully someone has encountered the same and has a fix. I'm running Safari on OSX 10.8.2 (all updated) and can't get into chat. I was getting a java error ran the install and checked for an update update and I'm still SOL. I get a blank pop-up-window and zilch. Advice or fix links appreciated. Gracias! ~pink

I have the same problem using Safari as well, though in my case I wonder if it may be impossible to chat via a mobile device? I thought I would ask as well since someone else was already posing a similar question. Thanks for any insight! |

There are multiple known issues with java right now. We have been struggling with this for weeks since it appears that Chrome does not support Java 7 on the Mac platform.
We are doing a huge site upgrade tomorrow and will be moving our chatroom to a flash-based platform. This should fix any further issues our users are having in accessing the chat room. Thanks |

Angie and I were discussing this yesterday. We believe the explosive growth of the site and posting has been taxing the database along with the spammers trying to get in. We're contemplating upgrading the server to more memory and CPU as well as 64-bit with an eventual upgrade to 5 while keeping the same feel/look. Additionally, we're also looking at creating an "archive" location to put some of the older threads as well as having a few threads archive due to their size but still allowing members to access the threads at any time (not necessarily posting to them)

Gemme & Semantics....I,too, am getting them in inordinate amounts as well. Something else funky that has happened twice today is when I was trying to log on, I used my SN and password, BUT it said invalid user ID or password BUT sent me to homepage, and I went to my page and it said "logging on"......soooo

Hello,
I'm not sure if it's just me or not, but for the past few days I have been getting database errors about half of the time while pages are loading. I thought I'd give you guys a heads up in case it isn't just on my end. Thanks! P.S. Like now; when I try to submit the reply; now I'm not sure if it will show up 2x or not at all. |

Gaige and I both have been getting a lot of Data Base Error messages. Mine seems to be primarily when I try to go to "User CP". In the last half hour, I am not able to access "User CP" at all. |

Linus, sorry but I sent you an email with a screen shot from Chrome. I am getting tons of Database errors when trying to load up the website or signing in, or even trying to go into a thread and post or go between threads. pages are not acting correctly,ie I used the thanks button, it disappeared but didnt' show up as a thanks. Pages loading with huge amount of lagging and tying up my browser. I dont know what's going on. This has happend tons today and yesterday. I am glad to know it's not just me that's having Database errors.

Everyone we are aware of what's going on. We are working on it. We believe it is a denial of service as it's consistent at a specific time each day.
