Just today, when I load the general arranger forum (This BBS)it asks about downloading a file to start it first. Is this just a ne thing..r is this some kind of intrusion/vrus thing?

No change here either.

My suggestion is to make sure you have a good anti-virus program running and update it with the latest virus definitions Lee. Clear your browser cache as well. Sometimes a glitch can occur if you haven't cleared your browser cache in a while. I would also run a diagnostic program to see if there are any errors on your hard drive or within the registry. A good free program is the free version of Glary Utilities. Also, make sure you have a good anti-malware/anti-spyware program and run it manually occasionally and also update it with the latest definitions. Anti-spyware programs you pay for usually have the option to run it automatically in the background giving you real-time protection in the process. Free anti-virus programs such as Microsoft Security Essentials or Avast, etc., provide realtime protection of course as well.

Depending on what Browser you use clearing the cache can resolve glitches and even speed up your internet browsing. Updating the Browser itself to the latest version usually provides added benefits and less problems encountered also.

All the best,
Mike

Never click on links within a webpage, Never open email attachments Never run pirate software, and you will NEVER have a problem.

I did jst run a dull Norton system scan. It found a few things as always...not the BBS seems to open as before.
FIXED.
