    Default Thing flashing up.

    Anyone else getting a notice that keeps appearing about using your information? I clicked "OFF" on everything and it hasn't shown since. Just wondered if it was genuine? because once it was showing, the site was frozen. Any ideas people?

    I have had that a lot in past few weeks ,not just on this site .Aways do as you do and it un freezes the site . I think if you allow you will leave your various sites open to all sorts of Hacks Etc. so always take the time to click off. Beware of these kind of interruptions

    Took quite a while to switch em all off, scrolling down, on and on. I'd better check me bank account.

    Yep! that's the one. Pain in the **** scrolling though them all, but at least it's stopped now. At first I didn't realise you could scroll through them, but after a practice it seems OK.

    Same here. If we all click the ‘off’ option, that’s the way the cookie crumbles.

    The thing I notice here is that keep on having to get back on site , as goes off at its own bidding , this maybe others in other countries testing how to close peoples communications down which would be the first thing to happen in any warlike situations. Or maybe some Spiv testing how to get information about ways and means of getting rich? Or just sheer vandalism, the world is full of nut cases. JS

    Nothing like that here in Oz James.

    But I regularly win the lottery in EU and USA without even entering.

    Threatened with fines if I do not pay my road toll account which I do not have.

    I am amazed at the number of parcels waiting for me if I pay the additional postage.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
