    Apparently they are using the vanilla forum software and when it gets overloaded enough it defaults that instead of what you clicked on. Did some research when it first showed up tonight.

    Oh and if you are getting pop ups I would run antispyware, rootkit hunters, and antivirus software on your computer.

    It's basically a crash for the site when it's overloaded. It happened a few times now.
    Is it better to out-monster the monster or to be quietly devoured?
