  1. Try going into IE's Options > Advanced tab > Reset... Be sure to apply a check to Delete personal settings.
  2. Amazonaws is Amazon's cloud. Basically, a CDN. Everything works fine here too, same behavior on Firefox x64 47.0 and IE 11.
  3. Looked at Splash, good if you use it on a LAN. If you use it to remotely help people you have to pay. For some that's rather useless. :/
  4. Looking at the signup process now, I see something that would be a quality change that would help stop the spam.
  5. Sadly Dave, that is completely incorrect. I'm sorry you feel that way about this forum software. I'd appreciate it if you could stop with the negative tone towards the forum software, it seems to be in a majority of your posts that I see anymore. What Ron has said is true by a majority - it's due to the popularity. My website is nowhere near as popular as Malwarebytes, and it is rarely hit by spam on the forums. Another that I moderate on is rather popular, though I believe they have their anti-spam configured in a much better fashion and they too are rarely hit by spam. @AdvancedSetup I'm curious how and what all is configured here for the IPS Spam Service. I may also contact @msherwood about it too, as I'd love to help out if possible.
  6. This has been going on for a while now, a few weeks I believe. Teamviewer completely denies that anything is wrong. A few links: Official statement blaming user's passwords - archive.is snapshot Support Twitter account with user interactions - [Mirror of some] [canned replies] [in case they take them down] , archive.is snapshot of some Twitter account, seems to be empty - archive.is snapshot Facebook page with people's posts - archive.is snapshot TV threatening writers to change articles - archive.is snapshot The /r/teamviewer megathread The Register article on the issue - They are getting canned replies too. archive.is snapshot Inquisitr article on the issue - archive.is snapshot CloudPro article on the issue - archive.is snapshot TV still denies a breach even with this thread linked . - archive.is snapshot Some support: Check if your TV Account was hacked into Check your logs!

  7. If it's emails not from Malwarebytes, they're spoofed. Report them to SpamCop. I haven't seen a single one of those emails. Also, it's not as simple as you would think. There's spam prevention software that can be added on top of IPS' anti-spam. Though I don't see these topics appearing on the forums. If I ever do, I use the Report feature.
  8. If utf8mb4 had been done in the database, emojis are now supported.
  9. I'm sure this news will interest several here. https://invisionpower.com/news/new-in-4112-post-preview-r968/
  10. All it does is have a popup at the bottom right letting you know about who replies to you in whichever topic you've been quoted in or have followed. Saying not to receive any alerts/notifications works fine here.
  11. I've had a support ticket in for it in the past - it's an editor issue.
  12. John, for me now I see all of them with a line. It makes no sense.
  13. That's what I want to know. Why did that one look fine? Now it doesn't... @David H. Lipman - Why are you still avoiding the question? You're complaining about a problem and not providing any information that would be valuable in debunking and resolving the issue... Complaining does not fix issues. Information that lets people look into issues is beneficial.
  14. That's how I see it as well. Alex was kind enough to try and fix it which got rid of the excess lines. Sadly, it has to be fixed in the database. :\
  15. It actually can depending on if he's running out of date software. I've seen this over on another site where I moderate. People on out of date, legacy, unsupported Operating Systems and Browsers were having a ton of issues. Did you notice in his videos it looks like the Classic Windows shell? That's why I believe this information is relevant. Additonally, @AlexSmith was talking with me via PM about the oddities in my signature. It can be browser specific, it seems. However, it's also inconsistent. If you look in John's screenshot you'll see my signature looks fine. Yet after that it has the white line again.
  16. @David H. Lipman - Still you are avoiding answering my question. Why? This is the third time I'm having to ask. What is your OS? Browser? What pages are these errors? Additionally, have you cleared your cache and even cookies?
  17. 4.1.11 is out. Hope it fixes a lot of things. The Editor got an update too.
  18. For what it's worth, the screenshot I posted was done here on this site. How is it that David cannot cut/copy/paste after highlighting text, yet I'm able to with no issues? Same group which means same permissions. I'm still waiting to hear what OS, browser, etc David is using. From what I've seen in the videos I have a suspicion as to what the issue could be.
  19. John, that's because the href tags were empty, like so. <a href="">Link</a>
  20. I'm not having the issues you're talking of... Such as this one: Perhaps you should post what OS, browser, and even what pages you're encountering these issues on so the staff can further look into it.
  21. Just because there are some bugs/issues with the editor does not mean the forum software as a whole is a "lemon". If I remember right, BBCode has become deprecated too. There is a Source button for the editor but therein lies the problem. It allows html, and that can be seen as a risk.
  22. Alex is correct. The only way on previous IP Forums (in my experiences on multiple IP Forums) was to do the following: [indent][indent][indent]Indentception[/indent][/indent][/indent]
  23. I see it as... <a target="_blank" href="https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS16-039" rel="external nofollow noopener noreferrer">https://technet.microsoft.com/library/security/MS16-039</a> In reference to the original post that references another thread... It looks like a failed copy paste for the most part. Almost all the links don't work except for the bottom ones.
  24. Interesting. Yeah, you shouldn't be able to reply. Or it should make a new PM. Signature is a bug with the editor. I've got a bug issue open in their tracker. They went to fix it once. But it's still here. Has been for a while. :\
  25. Seems quite noticeable to me? I see your name faded in comparison to mine. The same happens in large group conversations.
