So I just got a brand-new computer and everything about it is absolutely awesome. It is lightning fast and it has all sorts of cool bells and whistles. I love it. Only one problem. I can't stay on pond boss forum without getting kicked off. For some reason, the pond boss forum is the only one that I have any problems with and it is continual and frustrating. Has anybody come up with a solution for this goofy problem? I remember the thing about deleting your cookies but this is a new computer so how can I have any problems with the cookies?

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Running Linux on an old computer is good.

Yep Bruce....none of my other message boards do it either...only PondBoss but Google Chrome keeps me logged in on PondBoss all the time now.
Shorty I recently had to uninstall AdBlock Plus because YouTube videos all of sudden started showing ads again and other sites too. But once I re-installed it....Ad-Block Plus staarted kicking tail again. No Ads!

None of my other sites do this. Only happens when I need to reboot my internet service. I can still log into a number of places except PB and one other site. I just do a reboot and the world is round again. Not saying that's your issue, just something that happens here. I have AT&T.

Basically reboot my phone and restart the internet service.
Turn it off, then back on.

I just mentioned that's what happens here, pretty much every day.
Didn't know what you were using.

reboot = give it a kick in the hind end. Bruce, my Mac loving college roomate friend told me that the problems are because of drinking the Microsoft kool-aid. When I'm at the Conference he will be upgrading my desktop. I'll have him make sure that getting on the forum here is not a problem for my computer. I'll let him worry about those things!! He's getting my laptop in a week or so to do the upgrade on that and I will have the laptop with me while I'm on the road. I'll give him the info to get on here as well. I'm pretty computer illiterate - any techy stuff I shove at him. I have "team viewer" here on the desktop so he can trouble shoot it from home when the need arises.

I'm running XP on the desktop and (gasp) Vista on the laptop. He's going to upgrade to Windows 7 and Microsoft Office 2010.
He said those were the least "buggy" and would work with all the programs that I have on the desktop/laptop.

I just found the recovery discs for my laptop yesterday with XP Pro on it. Hard drive croaked and didn't know where the discs were so had them put W7 Pro on it. W7 don't play well with some of my software.
Need to set up a virtual machine for anything to work in windows 8.
Windows 10 is supposed to work with everything.
