What can I do?

I have not been able to get on FTE for the last 5 days! Every time I pull up my home page it brings up the FTE banner and the ad right under it but then the rest of the page is blank. I can let the computer sit there for hours and it will not load all of the page. I have no problem with any other page. They all load right away. I have IE8. I just installed Google Chrome and the FTE page loaded just fine. I read on here a couple weeks ago that some of you guys were having problems logging on. Is it a virus on FTE or what? What can I do I really like IE better than Google Chrome. I have run all the Virus scans with AVG and I have run Anti-Malware and CC Cleaner and spyware. Nothing has been detected. I don't know what else to do. And before you get to deep into things I know very little about doing fancy things with this computer. Thanks in advance for any help.

I get the same error most of the time through my work laptop. It has an older version of IE. I used to get the same error with my old personal laptop. Now I have a new laptop and a current version of IE installed. Haven't had a problem with the page loading. I do, however, have a problem with using Photobucket in IE. It would always crash IE. I downloaded Firefox and only use it for Photobucket. No problems with it there.

Been having issues myself. Problem has been specific to the FTE site. I think the gerbils have to work so hard loading all the animation filled ads that they are to pooped to load the thread content.

We will have these problems until the site ownership improves quality control in their webpage development department - When a page only partially loads it due to the programing for that page - I've crawled these pages and showed them time and agin where the problems are and I get told time and again that they have expert people - Then someone changes the page codeing and everything works ok.
I think the guy that works in the mail room has an Old Truck and can't get on during his breaks so he hacks in and fixes the code.
