I noticed lately whenever I visit I get a popup to install Chinese Language support, It does not happen all the time thus I suspect its one of the adds you are running. Perhaps someone on the [H] staff can check what add it is and get it fixed. Its nothing more than annoying popup, but still annoying none the less.
 
hm, ive never seen that, but that would be quite annoying. ITs like whenever I use this shitty computer at work it always tells me that it cant run hte active x shit on the [h] and so every time I follow a link i get a bunch of popups...
 
After some further checking I found its 2 of the Thermaltake adds that make it popup. Once is for the Toughpower power supply and the other is for the Armor Jr case. Not sure whats embedded in the flash, but those are the 2 culprits. Figured this out by just refreshing over and over and those two adds don't load till I cancel the popup.
 
Once I asked if they could change one of these ads that makes the 'post reply' hang. I knew which ad it was because in hte lower corner of my browser it said "waiting for asus.usa.com or whatever. After the thing loaded, so did the rest of the reply box. Sometimes I have to wait over a minute.

I posted a thread about it, only to find it locked and ignored. I dont know if i even got a response at all. I sadly regret to inform you this will probably be this threads future too. One thing about hardocp- ads come before users ALL the time, they will not fix it. they wont even listen to your problem, much less investigate it, so you will just have to find another way to deal with it.

They're so mean around here. :p

Hey, do you know what's with the site address? My www.hardforum.com links no longer work. I have to use htpp://hardforum.com to get here.

You are correct. This is an issue with the flash banners we are running for Thermaltake. I will have them get us corrected code, but I would not expect it till next week.
 
yup, has happened to me a few times too. Oh well, looks like a known issue. I thought it was just me though before. Whowouldofthought?
