This just started today and is happening with no other web pages I go to.
When I hit the Forum button or a thread button, the circle in the RTH browser tab keep going around and around. Every now and then a pop up appears saying that the page is not responding.
In the lower left of the browser (latest version of Chrome), I get various messages about what the browser is waiting for. These include:
api.viglink, pippio, ps.eyeota, s.thebrighttag and beacon.krxd
I checked and all of these are web traffic monitoring add ins for web sights.
I can still access everything on RTH, but the speed is greatly slowed and I get that annoying pop up about once/minute. Closing the browser and reloading did nothing to help.
Is this happening to anyone else? Thanks.

I use Chrome, too, and it isn't happening to me, so I doubt it's the browser. Is it still happening? Did you try wiping your cookies or logging out and in? Maybe that would help. Sounds to me like a problem with one of the ad servers, though.

I have virus/malware protection to the hilt. It might be related to that?
Agree about the ad servers or a Pro Boards issue.
Will just deal with it for now. Still happening.
The main RTH Forum has always been listed as a secure connection. Now it is not. The HTTP in front of the address bar is missing.
Thanks for responding.

I don't think it has ever been secure for me. You could try disabling your security features just to see if that's it. But, yeah, I think it is a server thing.

It started loading normal yesterday, but still not secure. When loading, I notice about 6 or more, url's for web traffic tracking on the lower left of screen. I am also having lots of adv. for lapidary related web sights and retailers show up on my Facebook news feed. Also adv. for Pro Boards.
When I clear cookies, it once again takes a long time to load RTH and the pop up appears. This last for about 6-10 times, then everything is back to normal.
Will try to see if the traffic tracking pages appear on my "processes" when checking Task Manager.
