    Admins Beware, New Scam

    I fully understand what you are saying Mike and I wouldn't have done it unless I could securely wipe my hard drive and do a recovery which is what I did immediately after looking, plus a full scan before leaving the site.

    Admins Beware, New Scam

    Thanks Mike. I do read a lot on the net and have never seen it mentioned. I don't have to worry about an employer, I retired 20 years ago.

    Admins Beware, New Scam

    Well at 80 years old, it was pure inquizativeness, I don't have a lot to do these days and don't know much about these scams except pay no one who asks for money.

    Admins Beware, New Scam

    I've received my first ever scam email. I clicked on the link which took me to a site asking for £269 GB. I clicked on the link as I keep a recovery backup so can do a secure erase of my NVME and do a recovery. The I.P. address comes back as Russia. I have checked with my registrar and it...

    XF 2.2 Version v2.2.5 Buffering

    A million thanks for all the replies and I have now moved to todo10.com and all the problems have gone, there is no delay or buffering at all. Although Fasthosts said they checked the server and could not find any faults, there must have been something wrong in the setup or something. When it...

    XF 2.2 Version v2.2.5 Buffering

    The actual site load times are fine usually, it's the uploading of posts when responding to one.# I just clicked on 'Forum' to return to the front page and it took 20 seconds. Just going to change PC and see if that is the same.

    XF 2.2 Version v2.2.5 Buffering

    So what have I done here to try and eliminate the problem. I have used 5 different browsers but the problem continued. Late last evening I responded to a new thread about Office Outlook, my reply was small "How long do previews take to come through to the main stream ??" That buffered for 3...

    XF 2.2 Version v2.2.5 Buffering

    Thank you D. Yes, after writing or answering a post or doing some other things, when you press save an orange bar runs across the top. I will put that to my host and come back with what they say. At 80yo I don't know much about these things, so what should I be looking for if they supply this...

    XF 2.2 Version v2.2.5 Buffering

    There has to be a reason why Xenforo is buffering and nothing else is and not my Vbulletin forum, Despite more than 30 views, there isn't a single comment. There must be a problem with the software. there can't be any other reason that xenforo is buffering and nothing else is ?
