Help, my screen keeps freezing up (only on AB) every fifteen minutes or so.It is driving me to distraction so any suggestions would be welcome. I have Google Chrome & Firefox and it occurs on both servers.

I completely gave up on IE because of just this and switched to Firefox. Can't remember who advised it a year or two ago on here, but I added Adblocker as well. And now I have no problem whatever with this excellent site.

I have exactly the same problem danny. Drives me mad. It's all ok for a few minutes then it gradually gets slower and stops completely. It ONLY happens on AB.
Quite a few have mentioned this, myself included.

Same here using IE.
Same here....only ever on AB.
Fine here

Hi Sibs, we're back!
Have we been missing, Baldric?
Very strange. The only time I have had problems with AB is when using Internet Explorer.

Perhaps you have 'nasties' lurking in your comps.

If you haven't any Anti Malware installed, I suggest you download and do a scan with the free edition of Malwarebytes. Do Not accept a trial version of the Pro Edition which is unecessary and costs money.

Sure it was you who wanted the hounds back
;-)
hi hans just asking have you tried the pro edition?
Indeed, thank you, I did miss them. I'm a bit slow today :-)
I get it too and it doesn't matter what time of the day it is.
Some days are better than others.
PC is clean and I'm on Firefox.

Balders, nice to see the pooches again.
"I get it too and it doesn't matter what time of the day it is"
lucky you xxx
There have been loads of threads about this for over a year on all browsers. I don't think it has anything to do with malware. It's always only on AB and I'm sure it's do with the number/set-up of the adverts. What I am sure of is nothing will get done about it. I had it with IE so much that the site became unusable, then I switched to Chrome which was OK for a while and now that does it too.
lol Cuddlyone, (I wish I could read before I hit submit!)

Prudie, I think your right about the set up of the adverts.
never had a problem with AB i'm on firefox but running an add on, that lets say, the Ab Editor doesnt like!!
Chrome are doing a new browser called monkey or something like that. Its supposed to be good.
wouldn't touch any chrome product, monkey sort of sums it up!!
The AB screen-freeze is driving me nuts too. I'm on a new laptop with Chrome and the only problems I have are on AB '...advert loading...advert will not load.. kill page' grrrrr...
Turn your skype off. It only freezes for ugly people:-)
