Strange forum bug.

Does anyone know why this forum will direct you to an unfound page if you use your scroll wheel prior to the page loading fully? Seems to do it when I use the down arrow too.

I'm not clicking on anything, it just directs me to an empty page. I know if I'm patient and wait for it to load it usually works but it's a habit that's hard to break on pages that load slow.

The most annoying part is often times when you hit the back button, it loads the same empty page.

Maybe it's some sort of internet explorer setting, maybe I've got one of those ad viruses, just not sure.

It's because every time anyone gets online, any thing we look up has to through the gummint's (NSA) spy computers first - that gahzillion dollar computer complex in Utah -where its intercepted, stored and analyzed. Only after that happens are you directed to the site you 'clicked' on.

Silver Trucker - try using Mozilla Firefox instead of IE for your browser. It's a bit more secure and faster.

Chrome does it too. I also get a problem on my phone where it says it can't load the page due to double headers being sent.

Happens here too. Doesn't seem to matter which browser or OS. I regularly access the forum on Linux, Windows and Apple. The problem has surfaced regularly on IE9 & 10, Firefox, Chrome, Opera and Safari. I **think** it's been happening for around two weeks.

Also, if it makes any difference it appears to be a redirect for a "Doubleclick" ad that isn't found.
