As usual the immature response from a staff member, I get the feeling Sweeney is the new bogie.
When you going to have your sex change Sweeney?

Oh, you're trolling the troll, such fun. :)
So basically as usual everything is the users fault? Just like the attack last year was the users fault and all the ranting caused by the repeated failures on behalf of staff.
When are the staff members going to get the last lesson in customer service? You already have the "Have you tried clearing your cache?" Part.

Torn doesnt use ads let alone pop up ads so it is a issue with the OP's computer having possible adware installed in which case he needs to get combofix and figure out what type of adware he has so as to find the right way to remove it.
As for that DDoS attack you're referring to that can happen to any website even some of the most well known like government websites, youtube, facebook, google, etc. Basically these attacks can hit regardless of what countermeasures are in place and are in no part something you can blame on the staff as most of the staff simply manage forums and rule breakers.

I am not blaming staff for the attacks or anything I am just trying to point at that on this site as it is with some others with a a small staff base the user is usually the first person to be blamed, when the attacks were happening a ton of people piled onto IRC to discuss the problem and as usual staff just said they were dealing with the issue and a ton of people were banned for trolling.
I just think staff need better communication and taught how to properly deal with users, at the end of the day Torn is a business and staff have a responsibility to be professional and mature.

It's not an issue that is Torn specific. It's most likely you have some sort of malware on your computer. Get yourself an antivirus.

Do what dunmugmeh said -- As for Sweeney, If anything, more staff should follow Sweeney's example that way shit would get done properly.
mug [553318]Do what dunmugmeh said -- As for Sweeney, If anything, more staff should follow Sweeney's example that way shit would get done properly.
He's a staff member, he shouldn't be being extremely sarcastic rude and vulgar, if you went into a store and got met with that sort of attitude when asking for help you'd expect them to be fired.

Sometimes people need to be told what they need to know not what they want to hear... [:sick:]
Keep on topic please

you can't really fire someone that works for free, you can only ask them to leave ... just saying ...
for the sake of staying on topic .... it is obviously a user problem and not torn , clean up your machine on a regular basis or ... stop looking at porn
And if you do want to keep looking at porn, staying to the big and well known sites does lead to a higher degree of safety than the little virus bait ones.
check your browerer add on`s ,sometimes when updating certain programmes ,free browswer add on`s , are in stalled which can cause problems similar to this
As with women, when looking at porn be safe and use protection :) if not you may be infected :(
