    hi, can anyone help me with this.
    all i get on the afterdawn site is columns of text in each seperate discussion and home page.
    i emailed support and they replied and told me to press F5 and something, ctrl or alt, but it didnt work so i emailed again but have not recieved a reply. its very frustrating trying to navigate through forum and everything takes an age to load.

    Could you please provide a screenshot of what you see?

    And my initial guess would be that you use somekind of an ad blocker that has been configured incorrectly and it blocks our site's stylesheet files loading.

    Yep, you're missing stylesheets and apparently the logo as well, meaning that your browser is blocking i.afterdawn.com / cdn0.afterdawn.fi / cdn1.afterdawn.com / etc domains that deliver our images and stylesheets.

    Again, are you using somekinda ad blocker, as it is the most obvious reason for such behaviour?

    Hm... As you reposted the image again and again, it seems that you don't see the image you pasted here either? Meaning that, for some reason, anything that loads "from outside" the domain you're on, doesn't load at all.

    It seems that Panda has somekinda "web filtering" enabled by default and it is "low level", meaning that it works on all browsers, whether you've installed it to a specific browser or not. Could you tweak your Panda's settings and humor me and turn the "Malicious Web & URL Filtering" feature off and test the page loading again?

    Also, can you try visiting our site using a different browser? That way we can figure out if it's the browser or something else that is causing the problem.

    Thanks.
