Ok, it's still broken . . .

Sep 6, 2008 9:30PM PDT

Was gone for a while, but now, on the first time I go to the forums, this is what I get http://www.wayne2.net/still_broken.jpg It happens in FF3 and IE7, and on two machines. Clicking the link "Continue to CNet.com" does nothing!!! I have to wait until the damn thing times out.

This only pops up the first time I go to the forums per day. I know, it's only once, but IT'S BROKEN!! Clicking the link does not take you to the forums.

Clicking the link in IE7 takes me to the forums. But not in FF3. Hmmmmm?

This is an entire page, not a popup or Java or Flash ad. It's an entire page with a link that doesn't work in FF3.

or it's Firefox equivalent and tell us what the link is. It might turn out to be some bad javascript.

Are you using

The IE T^ab function? If so, don't. Adblock plus doesn't work when using the IE Tab.
