hessu75 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Hello Arnies computer geeks. I am a bit miffed and baffled about this most recent anoyance, when reading posts through email notifications. The page starts to load and all seems ok for sec, then this mysterious akmeter.akmos.ru blah blah.txt/krappity krap starts to load. Nothing fortunately happens and by clicking back I can see the Arnies forums and the new posting. Anyhoo, This is frustrating and specially with my mobile PDA this akmeter mumbojumbo is very irritating, like having fireants in your trousers. Also, My laptop seems to try to load the akmeter krappity krap txt whatever, but will not load it. Luckily. The correct page will load, when clicked from forum. But, when pressing back button, you must click it twice to return to previous forum page. Strange eh? No viruses and all is good on my end. Any thoughts?

Danke Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 Me too, anything with internet explorer and the back button hangs up. Chrome works normally, I haven't tried Firefox or Safari yet. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted April 25, 2009 Report Share Posted April 25, 2009 (edited) Well the thing in question is the currency convertor that sits on the side bar on the forums (very usefull considering the nature of airsoft) which reloads every 15 seconds iirc, although it doesn't load at all for me anymore for some reason If you don't want to see it go down to 'Skin selector' at the bottom of the page and select 'Arnies - Without sidebar', that should do the trick....i think Edited April 25, 2009 by Rob15 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Danke Posted April 26, 2009 Report Share Posted April 26, 2009 Doesn't hang up in Firefox either. No currency converter visible but I think that came up before. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Marlowe Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 I'm having no issues myself. Just to check all the dull but necessary stuff; your browser / OS is up to date, etc etc? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
cazboab Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 It shouldn't hang in any browser, it should just pop up a tiny 404 in place of the exchange rates in the side bar, but if you are getting hang-ups do as rob suggests down at the bottom change the skin to "without sidebar". It looks weird for a while but you get used to it and pretty much everything in the side bar is only one or two clicks up top anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Slim_Shady Posted April 28, 2009 Report Share Posted April 28, 2009 Doesn't hang up in Firefox either. No currency converter visible but I think that came up before. Might be a simple case of page permissions if, like me, you use a lot of mods like NoScript or whatever in Firefox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
