I finally have a sorry tale to tell. I did try to find details on this forum, and found your statement detailing the technical wizardry, and saying that if members have problems, that's unfortunate. I notice that this was installed some time before the start of my serious problems. But not all have the latest technical gadgets, and I know I need at least an Intel processor to avoid all incompatibilities.

Thaivisa is the only site essential for me that actually leads to my browser crashing whenever scrolling a contribution to a thread. This may happen with some other sites but only on occasions, especially if a page is loading very slowly.

Regular problems I have and which are a nuisance but not usually fatal are a tendency not to be able to scroll across, because the bar is missing, or the extreme left or right is unreachable. I often get drop-down windows which ask me if I want the browser to keep trying with a script it does not like or to give up. I'm also unable to connect to some links in emails. Also I cannot download the latest versions of some players, so cannot play all video clips.

In the case of Thaivisa, from which I am effectively barred, I suspect a problem may be the adverts on the page which are upsetting my browser, as surely the actual text is not the problem, as the list of threads is usually ok.

Moan over. Can anyone make suggestions to overcome my crisis until I’m able to buy a new computer? For now I must continue to make do with my G3 ibook, operating OS 10.2.8!!! Some sites have a text only option, which would help a lot with most threads.

All this is a pity, and it is not practical to spend more than a limited amount of time occasionally using the service in a local library or internet cafe.

What browser and version are you using?

Have you tried with another browser, Firefox, Chrome, Safari?

I'm using the latest version of firefox I've been able to download, I had to abandon Safari some time ago as it was no longer working, and could not download latest version.

I could also try IE again, but I eventually settled on Firefox as it behaved the best generally.I'm reading this in the libray so will have to come back on the version no.

I still need a new machine!
