Forum problems

Hi all.

I am having a bit of trouble with a few forums i post on, basicly when i try to click on a smilie, insert link, text font etc it doesn't do anything, this only started today and it only does it on some forums.

Any ideas on how to fix it would be great.

Thanks

Re: Forum problems

Some information about the computer and version of Windows would help. Did you try system restore? What changes have you made in the last day? Have you scanned for malware?

Re: Forum problems

In addition to Bill's questions, what forums? What browser are you using? Have you tried using another browser? Have you tried restarting your computer?

Re: Forum problems

Thanks for the reply's.

In answer to your questions, i have run anti virus, spyware etc, PC is an acer aspire t180, running windows XP, i haven't tried a system restore and haven't done/changed anything for a while.

It is only doing it on a few forums, mostly photography forums, i am using firefox and i have tried with IE and get the same.

Restarting dosen't help.

Thanks

Nick

Re: Forum problems

Do it do this in safe mode? Select safe mode with networking? Start hitting F8 just before it starts to reboot and it will give an list of advanced boot options. You should also try a restore point.
