• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Hi. On the main HardOCP page and on every forum page, there is an advertisement at the top that is below the HardForum tm logo. This ad appears as a white box and is causing IE7 and Firefox to never finish loading the page. The progress bar moves to the end, but never finishes. I am not using any ad blockers. What kind of advertisement is it?

I don't know if I am missing any plugins. I have shockwave and flash properly installed and have tested both in IE7 and Firefox.


Thank you.
 
I know the ad was not loading for anyone yesterday. Maybe your browser cached something funky? It is just a normal flash ad inside an iframe. Might try flushing your browser cache and see what happens.
 
Tried clearing IE7 cache. Problem still persists. I will post a screenshot later. By the way, the continuous loading stopped on the main HardOCP page. Problem continues for all the forum pages. I still see a whitebox on all the pages where the ad is supposed to be.

I checked my flash plugin again and it works fine. Flash works on all the other sites I visit. The top ad is the only ad I am having problems with at HardOCP.

Well you've got all the ads except the Newegg one. Have you got the latest flash player, other than that I would guess browser error.
 
Problem solved. I have Spybot S&D installed with the Resident Shield. It was blocking the url for the newegg ad.

Thanks everyone.
