I'm getting partial page loads and pages full of gibberish today. Safari 2.0.4 / Mac OS 10.4.7

example:
gibberish.webp
 
mmmm...nope, not anymore....

no clue what to do if you are still getting errors, gotta be something with Safari (and I'm a PC-only user, so I won't be any help....lol)
 
I'm getting the same "stuff". I thought maybe it was firefox but it the same for IE.
 
I still get the partial loads and funky pics but now it's only with Firefox. Any ideas what's up?
 
Tried that a couple times ind it's actually worse after I delete cookies. I'm virus free so I don't have a clue where the issue could come from.

Oh, I forgot to add that it's only with MUD not with any of the other message boards I've been to.
 
how many of the others are running vBulletin 3.6.1?

(hate it when I run the forum on 5 machines and none of them show the issue...lol)
 
That I would have to look into and pay a little more attention to. I'll get back to youon that.
 
Still having issues with MUD on rare occations I do have problems with other sites. From what I could find at Mozilla it doesn't seem to be a broser issue. Perhaps the new version will fix this? At any rate here is a link that I found that was on Mozilla's site.

anyway i figured i should post it up. its only with firefox
 
I'm still having the gibberish and partial page load problem. It's been waxing and waning but I have some problems every day. I've changed from Safari to Firefox, which fixed some other problems but not this one...


It happens 10x more frequently on my office computer, which is on a T1 connection but behind some pretty dense hospital firewalls and filtered through WebSense. At home, on a digital cable connection, it happens only rarely. Not sure what any of that means.
 
it's possible that some of the javascript used by the forum software is getting blocked....the latest versions of vBulletin rely pretty heavily on AJAX for page loading/refreshing....

what'er ya doin surfin from work anyways? lol
 
But what's weird is that it's inconsistent. Today, for example, it's happening on about 1/3 of the time. Yesterday it was 70% or so - I'd have to reload 6 or 7 times to get a page to load fully.
 
so this is the latest thing ive figured out. Everything is perfectly normal and loads correctly when my Norton Internet Security is On. When I dissable the security I get the funky pages.

so all is well. keep the security on
 
I would have agreed but mine still wigs out with Norton on. It was occasionally better when my worm protection was off but even that didn't last. What's strange is that the gibberish is only on MUD. On very rare occasions I get partial pic loads but VERY rarely.
