    OK, I'm gettin PO'd now. First. let me say I post at about a dozen message boards. This is the ONLY site I have trouble with.

    Since the big crash, I started to get messages from Norton anti-virus that an attempt to attack my computer was thwarted when I clicked on a thread. Then, it got worse. When I'd click on a thread, I'd get the message again, and the screen would freeze. Even after closing my browser, and opening a new window, I'd get site can not be located, or a message to that effect.

    I actually have to restart in order to get access to TGG. It happens almost all the time now. It started, like I said, after the board crashed, and it just gets worse. I can't figure it...... I have ZERO problems like this elsewhere. Is the site being hacked?

    TGG is my home.... but if this continues, I'll be an orphan. Very freakin frustrating.

    Well from personal experience Norton sucks. It will pick up anything that looks like a suspicious screen name. While that's a good thing, it gets very annoying.

    I ditched Norton after it made my computer run at 100% all the time. I use AVG.
