Browser Problems During Contest

Post by BillyJoe »

WebMan, my browser (IE Version 8) is acting funny while playing the contest. The page seems to go "non-current" periodically. I play using the 1-5 and enter keys, not the mouse. I can click a card using the mouse, and it returns to normal / current. It also happens when I am using VIP CHAT.
I ran a scan for viruses (negative), and turned off the Microsoft Firewall (I use McAfee AV), but no improvement.
I know you made some changes to lessen the load times on the games, which is great. Any chance that may be the culprit?

Does it happen when you go between chat and the game, or if you are just plugging away at the game? Does it happen in the non-contest games as well now, or only the contest? Does it seem to happen when the scores refresh?

I think I found the culprit, WebMan. I have Microsoft Auto-Update on, and it had downloaded two critical patches that it was trying to install. I re-booted the PC so it could finish the patch install, brought the site and contest back up, and all is fine now. Sorry for the false alarm.
