Is anyone else having a problem getting onto this site?
My favourites take me to the "Home " page and I have usually just clicked the "Forum" box to go to the forums. Lately, clicking on "Forum" just takes me back to the "Home" page and I have to click on a particular posting, then work backwards to get to the "Forum" area.
I find this very annoying and time consuming. Thought it was just a temporary glitch, but it has been this way for the past week.

You try reentering the forum page as your favorite, things were messed up here this past week with a hacker.
Same here, mine is just getting back to normal. Da_n hackers.
Me too. Although at first, any thread I clicked on, would redirect me to another site entirely, but that site wouldn't load completely.
Here's some discussion and a response from Brent: http://www.clubhotrod.com/hot-rod-lo...banksters.html..
Also, just found out I can't access the Forum tab to start a new thread.............not sure if that's a new problem, unique to my setup, or what?
That's what happened to me! Couldn't get access to the forum tab. Brent asked me which style I was using, (bottom lower left of screen) I changed from default to transparant and it worked after that, later went back to default. He also asked which url I was seeing when I got the error message, but I never got the error later! If you can get the error, grab the url for Brent!Quote:

Try changing the "style", after I did that mine went back to normal. In fact I tested all the styles just because it had been so long I forgot what they looked like! I now use transparent where I use to use default.Quote:

Yep I have had the same problems as you guys.
Been trying to start a new thread for about three days now with no luck.
Forum just takes me back to the home page. Not to sure how RestoRod goes
to a existing thread then goes back some how to get to the Forum page, like that???

I still cant get off the home page to the forum,so I go into todays posts,and work backwards from there to the forum page,if that makes sense,but I havent had any probs starting a new thread,,,,yet.
I'll agree with you but it isn't the fault of the site (this time!) Like I said earlier, Da_n hackers! :mad:Quote:

To bad we could not send that stuff back to the hacker that sent it, Freakin SOB!!!

Well here it is April 1st and I cant get into the forums by clicking on it. Keeps going back to home page. I had to backdoor it to post this! Must be and april fools joke right??!!
try cleaning out the cache and temp files. (Menu Bar\ Tools \ Delete Browsing History) or under the control panel, cleanup I think it's called. Then sign in again. It worked for me. I also changed from the default screen to either of the others for a little while and it seems to help. You can change the screen using the selector in the lower left. The transparent is pretty cool. As I said earlier , Da_n hackers...
Oh yeah, changing the screen is much better! I hated that blue color screen. Just cant make up my mind whether to use the velocity or the transparent. Thanks for the tip! Still having trouble getting right into the forums, but it may just be operator error. Im using different computers here at work, and they all act the same. Ill just have to keep pestering you guys untill I get used to it all again!...lol...
Note: When I switched to the velocity or transparent screen, I could easily get to the forums by clicking on the header. But when I logged out and back in again, the screen went back to the default screen and I could not pull up the forums. Guess I will have to manually change the screen everytime I log in. Is there a way to make one of the other screens permanent without having to change it everytime I log in?
You really need to clean out the history files and cache! Then log in, choose your screen and then after you leave the site it should stay as the chosen view when you return. Your computer has the "old" view as your default setup... I know I'm not explainin' it properly.. I'm just not a computer geek... But I know it works..:LOL:Quote:

Again for those having minor issues:
Log out of CHR
Clear your system cache (start, all programs, accessories, system tools, clean disk or disk cleanup, make sure all boxes are checked)
Clear your browser cache and cookies
Reboot your system
Then log back in.

Yeah! What HE said! rofl...
Thanks Bill!
I'm looking into this guys...I've been a little sidetracked over the last several days with other stuff.
Does it work now?
Works for me Brent, thanks for the repairs!!!!!
Life's tough for us 'puter illiterates!!!! I need a checklist to do much more then log on here and check my email!!!!!!!:LOL::LOL::LOL:
Since I've followed Bill's steps, it's been fine for me. We'll have to see if T42 is still having issues. If he returns.
