Yeah so, my problem with not being able to see the last few posts in a thread continues. 

The glitch occurs in IE, Firefox, and Chrome (all versions properly updated).

It does not happen on my wife's computer, or any other that I use either on our home network or elsewhere.

My logic may not be perfect, but I deduce from these two facts that the problem is not CF or software. 

But you already know all  this from previous discussion.  Here's the new element:

My machine (Lenovo T60p) recently became so malware-laden that it was essentially unusable.  So I reformatted the hard drive.  And guess what?  The problem persists.  WTF?

I might do that if I had thousands of extra dollars laying around

this started back up for me at work again as well about 2 or 3 weeks ago.  new hp laptop w/xp and chrome as my browser.  everything was working great for the first few weeks but then went back to the same old, same old.  i don't get it.

i'm getting those dotted underlines on some of the words on here which usually means some kind of spyware.  but i'm only getting it on this site so i think there may be something going on here.

never mind, i'm getting it elsewhere also, must be on my end.

I just got a malware detection warning saying that this site contains elements from icons.iconator.com.

I had clicked on the Randall Cunningham thread (page 1) and got the warning.  I closed my browser, tried again and got the same warning (did this 3x total).  Every other thread I've clicked in has no issues.

It was an avatar stored at iconator.com. I removed it from their profile.

Chrome is warning me that MDS' avatar "may harm your computer."
