The cause of a lot of these problems are ad servers and the delays caused by them. GenesRU uses an adserver run by Orange (EE). Third party toolbars in IE (any version) can also cause a lot of grief. |

Haven't had that problem but do keep getting the error message when posting on a thread. But when the error message is ignored and pc sent back to the message box. On checking the thread the message has actually printed. Hence the many incidents of duplicate/triplicate and more threads by people. |

Well I sent GR another message last night about this problem. Got a reply this morning. A waste of time as they again want details of what I am doing when I get this problem. All I do is click on a thread. What else can I tell them. |

I have used Chrome ever since it came out, have had no problems at all, spam is removed into its own area & I do not get lots of adverts. |

wisechild, my problem occurred around mid January 2013 and it looks like the problem was caused by an update to Firefox 18.0.2 around that time, because when I restored my computer to the last back up point prior to the date the problem started, a point where I was using n earlier version of Firefox, the problem was resolved. |

I use Firefox and couple of months ago I had a problem with pages on GR not displaying correctly and GR told me it must be my browser and to try using Google Chrome. |

Well they keep telling me that IE8 and WP causes problems but I would have thought that telling them about the bit that shows up under Search might have given them a clue. |

It would seem that their answer to all our computer query/problems is to change to Google Chrome!!!! |
