PriusChat early morning clickAds hyjack

What's up with PC for the past couple days. Regardless of clicking on the main forum ... newbie ... FHOP ... every page is re-directed to nothing but ads. Then later in the day, it simply clears up. Is it because of more upgrades? or what.

Hadn't noticed and I was up until about 1:30 am Central last noc and later the night before.

I've had one person say they've seen the home page partially load then stop and they haven't been able to get one. Meanwhile I've had no issues and it seems most people are getting on at will.

I couldn't get past the logon screen or an ad page for about a day.

Similar problem here for a couple of hours.

I couldn't acess any page on PriusChat for like the past day in Internet Explorer 7, but when using Firefox 3, I could. Now, I am completely confused

I'm still unable to access Priuschat.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.

I was unable to reach PC for over a day, either from home or at work.

I've had strange problems with it for the last week culminating in being unable to get get past the first page (varies) for about 24 hours starting yesterday morning. During the day I was on Windows 95 with I.E 6.0 and at night Vista with who knows what version of IE.

I had problems for about the last 24 hours too until I clicked "Log Out" as the page was loading. Entered my userid / password and it's working now. Did the cookie need to be rewritten or was it a happy coincidence?

I've had problems since Sunday. Part of the page would load, but then it would lock. Other times when I would "launch" the page I would get ads. Today at noon was the first time I've been able to get in without any problem. I'm almost afraid to log off now for fear I'll lose the window.
