Problem with the boards - links not working!!

[jim2004291277]

None of the links on the board are working! I don't mean the internal links to the different forums and posts etc, I mean the links to exernal sites that are within posts. When I click on them there's no "click" noise and nothing happens!

Anyone else having this problem or is it just me??

Edit - I can't look at the enlarged versions of thumbnails within posts either, same thing i.e. no click noise and nothing happens

Test on above link.

It works for me. Perhaps your browser is not working?

Thanks for the speedy response Ken!

I was just about to post - I tried on a couple of other sites and got the same thing - I could move around within any particular site fine but no external links worked. So the problem was obviously with my browser and/or PC. I've restarted my PC and everything seems fine now but I'm going to run a virus check to be sure.

Thanks anyway!

Jim

Ah yes, those wily computers! Whenever mine acts odd I have to decide whether to reboot, or just take a long-overdue hatchet to the thing. :D

You might have a "pop-up blocker" that is a little bit too strong!

Since most links open up in another window, sometimes a pop-up blocker will not even allow ANY links to open.

Try disabling it and see what happens.

Thanks mate but everything seems to be fine now. Just a mystery glitch that disappeared when I restarted my PC!

Sometimes I too feel like taking an axe to this bloody thing....
