Can anyone explain why I have to hit the "Back" button twice to go back a page on the forums here? It's darned annoying! Do I have something set wrong, or is this a "feature" of the forums' interaction with Norton Internet Security?

Bill

I just looked at the list of recent pages (that down arrow next to the Back button) and it says that the previous page is:

http://adserver.ign.com/html-ng/network

So if I hit Back it goes to that (whatever it is - one of the banners?), then only to the real previous page if I hit Back again. It's just irritating.

It's gotta be the banner just eblow the Rebellion at the top of the main page. I just noticed that instead of a banner it says "Internet Explorer cannot display this web page" between the two guys, and if I right-click that and look at properties there's an adserver URL in there. And I have the pop-up blocker and ad blocker in Nortn turned off, too.

Good possibility.
I know these boards have been having issues with those ads for months (probably longer).

Yeah I can only access the FF boards via Firefox.
It will not load at all on IE for me.
