Navigating this site now-a-days is frustrating; first it was all the advertising and now the Back Arrow button doesn't work...:banghead:
What's up with that??

Have to hit the back arrow twice for it to work, sucks but at least it works.

I can sit here and hit it all day long and it doesn't work... Frustrating.
Maybe a clue here... When I do hit it, whether with the back button on my mouse or the one on the site, the "forward" arrow lites up...

It has something to do with the Google ads and tracking. I stopped it by disabling tracking...

Safety - tracking protection- get a protection list online - easy list standard

This works with IE 10.

Please bear with us a little longer. We just switched servers and need a little time to work some bugs out. I'm working a crazy day job and the guy helping me with the server has other customers as well. He is working on it today and we hope to have it fixed soon.

The other thing that pisses me off is the "who's online" box that pops up on the left side and keeps me from reading until it goes away. Just did it again!

Thats a new one I have not heard about. Is that maybe the chat room? If so I may be able to disable that.

Back button works fine on my. IPad and the chat thing only flashes for a second then disappears so it may have more to do with settings in the type of OS people use. Other than the ads nothing has really changed on the iPad use, FYI.

The "who's online" pop up box is a PITA.

Disable that unwanted feature!

It is a dark colored pop up on the right side of the screen that has a list of user names and says if they are online or offline. Actually just popped up again so I clicked the who's online and it isn't quite the same so maybe it has something to do with the chat which I never use.
I just disabled the pop up option in the chat options and it seems to have fixed it. I had never clicked on that icon before so didn't know I could do that. Thanks for help.

Let me know if you see that again. I think I figured out how to disable it

Sorry, we still haven't been able to find out why it only works on some browsers. Some people find that it works if you hit it twice.

when I right click the back arrow I see

http: // googleleads.g.doubleclick.net/page (http://googleleads.g.doubleclick.net/page) << don't click the link

I'm guessing one of the ads maybe?

It works fine for me on Chrome, IE the click twice does the trick.
