I fear there may be something going on with the site. It may be my computer, but often when I click a tab or messages, I get "The site you are trying to access is temporarily unavailable...". Of course a refresh of the page brings it up again. Also, when I try to leave I get a banner that asks me if I am sure I want to leave this page? Not to give too much away about myself but I usually only see that on the less reputable sites I used to visit. If anyone else is experiencing this chime in. I am bringing it up because I don't want this site to go through what MCM recently did.

Seriously? Over twenty four hours and over sixty views and no answer from the mods? Yes, no, maybe?

No one else has contacted me with this issue either.

Hi Dave, I have done so a couple times and it doesn't seem to cure it for more than a day. Although I haven't had the "Are you sure you want to leave?" banner in a couple days. The odd thing is I just reloaded this computers memory less than a week ago so it should be clean. I have however, recently had my Yahoo account hacked. Maybe they are connected?

I've had my yahoo account hacked and after fighting it and changing passwords I finally dumped it and opened an account on Gmail.
Try running these free programs to scan for malware: 1. Malwarebytes 2. McAfee's Stinger

I've had my yahoo account hacked and after fighting it and changing passwords I finally dumped it and opened an account on Gmail. Try running these free programs to scan for malware: 1. Malwarebytes 2. McAfee's Stinger You too, I noticed this has happened to me several times, under two accounts. I was able to relieve the problem the first time, however I discovered the second time that my account was permanently locked so I started another account and I was locked out again. I brought up the issue to yahoo, and discovered they locked my accounts, because i use my accounts at work as well as my house, even after I told yahoo that I did not care if they thought that I was being hacked they still did not release the account, and later upon hacking myself back into my account I learned yahoo was the one hacking my system and reading my mail I was receiving from clients. Upon learning this I contacted yahoo saying that I was ashamed they had locked my account "without permission or previous warning" and that I would like for them to unlock it, to say the least they did nothing and since then I dumped all accounts and informed all of my business clients no t to e mail me as e mails sent to one yahoo accounts will be unlawfully read by yahoo staff. Since this has happened I disabled my account through re hacking said account and deleting the address. Imminently after this happened I got an e mail from yahoo on two of my other yahoo accounts and my g mail account "I don't know how they got that address" that I was being hacked, and they listed who the hacker was "guess who". To say the least I e mailed them back calling them morons and that their company should go bankrupt, I had no idea this was happening to others

I'll try the Malwarebytes. I have Microsoft security and I guess you get what you pay for in that case. I've never liked MaCafee, because the one time I tried it it came with it's own virus. I have wiped and reloaded my computer and it does seem to work fine. At least noone here called me a whiney little...whatever like they get away with at MCM. Thanks for the help guys.

I learned yahoo was the one hacking my system and reading my mail I was receiving from clients. . Are you serious? What exactly do you mean that Yahoo was reading your emails? Do you think that some Yahoo employee was actually reading the contents of your emails? That's crazy! Do you know how many millions of email accounts Yahoo has? Why would they single you out? What makes you so special? Or do you mean that Yahoo was "reading" your emails by automatically screening them? Do you realize that Google (Gmail) seems to be the worse offender for doing that? They target ads to you based on the contents of your emails. If you send a zipped file, Gmail actually unzips it to check its contents. If it contains .EXE files, they reject your email! How's that for snooping? You need to realize that when you are on a computer and send information electronically, your privacy is gone!

I have received that message several times, but with a refresh it always came up, so I just took that the "connection" to the website got interrupted or something like that.
