Default Forum Problems/Browsers

Lots of problems accessing and posting the Forum today. Anyone else? Some posts show up, others dont. Posts show up under my name that I didnt post, avatars revert to old versions, sometimes I get a "Test site" , sometimes a site that only shows posts thru the 19th........AOL shows the site as down. MY IE Is whacked anyway and Firefox seems to be allowing posts that I can see but no spell check on Firefox?
Those of you posting any issues?

I use Safari on my Mac at home and that appears to be OK. I use IE at work and that was a problem. As you mentioned, old threads, wrong dates and then could not get into the regional board.

Why do you use so many browsers? Anyways when browsers wig out I suggest you delete and reinstall. I just use firefox http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/ Reinstalling firefox may get you back your spell check (I assume you checked to see if it was accidentally turned off?) IE is crap and very slow. They do have a Safari for Windows you may want to try http://www.apple.com/safari/

good luck

LOL! Thanks! I usually go through aoHe**, just because of my email. MY IE is messed up because it does not show pictures all the time-just the dreaded redX. I agree it is CRAP and SLOW! Never thought to reinstall that one Firefox I have as a back up and seems to be the only one I can get on the Forum with. How do I check on the spell check. its underlining the misspelled words but not giving me the options for the correct ones.
Ill have to check out the Safari

LOL! Id like to check that out but I just got a new Sync phone from ATT that is pretty slick and not quite as costly.
Looks like a lot of people are MIA from the Forum. Johnny tried Firefox and could not get on. I sent him the Opera and safari links.

Johnny is on Digital Corvettes if anyone has to get hold of him. He definitely has the CF blues. He's installed Firefox and still nothing. Maybe it's a hit by a rival crew.

Saw Johnny at the ManCave this morning.
He asked if I could got on CF.
I have had no issues. He said he has not been able for a day and a half.

In case you are wondering he's alive and well getting his corvette fix at HP.
