It's more likely my connection. I am usin a new computer. But this started about the same time we got the dreaded popup add. It also only seems to happen when I use Netscape. I can deal, but it indicates that something is up. When it happens and I go to click the link to reply instead of seeing the URL for a new post (at the bottom of the window), I see "APPLET SENSOR RUNNING." Just thought I'de mention that, it could help.
