Solved: Having to scroll in threads
When I open a thread I have to scroll about 25% down the page before I come to the 1st post. Is anyone else having that problem, or is it just me?

Is it ads you see from google that make you scroll down - because I see them in IE7 but FF2 here has a blocker and I see no ads. In IE I have to I see the first post right at the bottom of the page and I have to scroll further to see more posts. In FF2 I see the posts right up.

Attached is what I see when I open a thread. If I scroll down the page about 20-25% I start seeing the threads.

I had no problems before yesterday, and I saw a notice at the top of the page that TSG was updating software.

I have no problems with any other website.

No probs here on XP and firefox 2.0.0.14 but as Kush said about theirs, I have an advert blocker.

Maybe tell an admin/moderator to sort out the ad page?

Whoever's having a problem, maybe post your screen resolution?

the only ADD I see is a small vert for Sun Micro Systems

I like the Google tool bar.
I will not install the either Yahoo or Aol tool bar.

but Google tool bar with IE7 ---I have no problems
G provides pop up blocker and a easy 1 click spell checker

because I am terrible at spelling/ hitting two keys at the same time too

Oh below the vert on the right hand side in a vertical column I have a tag for

Just discovered this thread -- not sure why it was posted in the Hardware forum. I'm going to move it now.

I can't seem to duplicate this problem. Anyone who is having this problem, please post some useful information: (1) your operating system, (2) your browser and version, (3) your screen resolution, and (4) which color variation you're using. Thanks!

W2K,

By colour variation Mike means are you using the khaki (used to be called white) skin for the site or the classic blue?
