Weird glitch when logging in to arbtalk

[Treewarrior]

Mine still asks me to install additional plug in?

[Andy Collins]

I'm still struggling to stay "on-site" with all sorts of issues. And it doest matter which puter I'm on, or whether I'm on Google Chrome on the big lappy or Firefox on the netbook. I've repeatedly cleared everything in the caches, deleted history, even done a re-set on this netbook, but the issues keep coming back. It seems to be an advert (to my un-informed brain) as I get the warning "unresponsive script" flash up, and in the bottom left of the screen "waiting for ssl.something.com" I tried taking a snapshot, but when this happens the whole puter freezes til I restart it. If this happened on other sites the puter would be launched into space, but it only happens on this site.

Was doing it on my 'phone but fine via PC

[Andy Collins]

Right, switched to Firefox on the proper lappy, away from Chrome, and seems more responsive now just cant work out why its only AT that I have problems with.

Firefox on macbook here, no issues at all.

Is their a relation to the Vbulletin and Daylight saving time changes steve?

Iv`e seen this before where the portal being seperately located to the base directory causes blank referral so a new redirect had to be added to relay the users if their logging into the main first "arbtalk.co.uk" page?

I assume the site uses portal software?

also anyone using chrome and seeing a continuous "install missing plugin" notice with ANY sites then have you got skype installed? If so delete the default Skype app symbol in the top right corner beside the chrome wrench Icon and the notice should disappear? (pending resolution with a conflict between Skype and Chrome)

site shenanigans

Thanks for the heads up on skype. i'll be interested to see if this is the problem Andy Collins is having, as he has skype set up in his user contact options.

 

Yes the homepage is portal software. I'll have that looked into. It would seem to coincide with the daylight time change.

 

Very helpful post, thank you

[Andy Collins]

Like I said, if it was all sites that I visited I throw the puter out of the window, but when its isolated to one site, that indicates that the issue is somewhere in that site. Hereby lies the problem, it just happens to the one site I spend most of my spare time!!

Yes I'll check out the Skypey issue, it would make sense, but as it wasnt indicated as a problem in the warning flashes it is something easily overlooked

Andy...try doing what peckerwood suggested, or alternatively remove the skype logo from your profile and see if that makes a difference

[Andy Collins]

Ok removed the default Skype as suggested, and also switched Skype off on the toolbar, though this is incovenient as I use Skype a lot (nearly as much as AT) but at least understanding what causes the issues will help.
