@DocJohn ...

It is a shame and disgrace that people with technological savvy utilize their skills to do bad things instead of good things!

Sorry your site was on the receiving end of such maliciousness!

Thanks for this!

Ahh yes, this is the issue I'm having. Clicking the buttons (like hugs, thanks, submit reply) has no effect. Here's the weird part ... only on my laptop. They work fine on my phone (I don't use Tapatalk, just regular whatever). They worked initially after the changeover. The problem only started yesterday.

I still can't post using Firefox. The post box is greyed out. I am posting this from my phone which is Chrome.

I couldn’t use PC at all last night. Haha I had nothing else to do so I went to bed. It seems to be working fine for me now.

Anyone having issues this week with Private Messages. Two days in a row I've typed up a Private Message and when I hit send I get a screen that says something like "Wait five seconds while your browser is checked". I hit the back arrow yesterday and my entire message was lost. I think there is a kink in the system in the Private Message area.

I've been having trouble with it kicking me out after I've signed in, and kicking me out when I try to move from screen to screen or from page to page in a forum. Or I'll post a reply to someone and the computer will come back and tell me I have no right to be there as I'm not a member or something, then presents me with another sign-in screen. Very frustrating.

An hour or so ago I posted a reply to a recent poster who was discouraged with therapy, and it was something I really wanted to get across to him/her, and I thought I'd posted it OK, but now it's not there at all. ULTRA frustrating.

These things are occurring on my IMAC, with Safari.

I can respond on the Google Chrome browser but Firefox keeps on logging me out when I try to do anything.

Yes, I get asked every two minutes to re-enter my log in details just like Mopey describes. I'm using standard Microsoft Edge.

having problems with albums, you can pull the album up but when you click on a specific picture it blows it up out of proportion and you can't click on the picture to size it down to normal the way we could before. Any ideas?

I keep having to sign back in like a million times. I go to reply to someone and then after I click post quick reply, I find out I'm signed out again and have to retype the whole thing. This is with Firefox. I'll try again with Google Chrome.

Since this original post was about the attack a few days ago, it might be good to put individual issues in a separate new thread, so admins can see that there are separate issues. It seems like some ongoing issues are with Firefox, and there are others with chat, and still others with forum features (like what @Tamster described).

Just a suggestion, I know I might have overlooked these different issues bc this thread was originally about the cyber attack.

Hope all these issues get resolved.

I'm still having trouble with Firefox. It keeps logging me out and I have to log back in a million times. In the time it takes to write a two line reply, the system will have logged me out. I'm currently using Chrome but that's not my favorite browser. Just wanted to let someone know. HUGS Kit

I am typing this from my phone because I wasn't sure what to do. I'm not having problems with other sites on my laptop. I'm not very tech-savvy so I don't know what exactly is triggering the insecure connection warning or what to do about it.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.
Yes I been having some problems accessing the website myself.

It kept refreshing on me. I'm glad that I am not the only one!

Yawl have FUN fixing your computer issues!! Have you heard the joke about why Word software is called windows? That's cause you want to thrown them out the window when they act up.

I just LOVE cracking myself up, LOLOL

Seriously, I hope yawl get the computer issues under control quick!
Thank you for the joke! I am glad that it not only me having some problems accessing pc.

Is anyone else still having issues with getting kicked out of PC? I keep having to log in over and over again every time I click on anything. Anyone else having issues with this? It's been happening for a few days now.

While the attack has been mitigated, some people's web browser caches may be displaying pages that the web browser has saved on their computer. Virtually nobody should be getting the 5-second screen. You may need to clear out your web browser's cache in order to get full functionality of the site back again (info here: Do You Have a Technical Issue or Question? READ THIS FIRST ). Then shut down and restart your browser.

If one browser works for you, but not the other, that's the likely cause.... the one that's not working right still has cached information saved that it's serving that is messing up the functionality of the forums.

and then only part of the page loads.

This is a test post. I am having issues with getting kicked out. Support emailed me with the suggestion that I allow this site to save my password. If you see this post it means doing this fixes getting booted out. Wish me luck.

Yay it works.

I'm still getting kicked out daily. I just wrote an entire post and when I clicked to post it, I was kicked out and the message disappeared. I'm on my tablet the majority of the time I'm on pc.
