    Problem was fixed a couple of days ago. You need to clear out your browser's cache (cookies) and the problem will disappear.

    I use the Google browser Chrome and have had no issues whatsoever. I would never use Explorer because it's so easily riddled with viruses.

    I started to do this, but when warned that all my passwords (which I can't remember!) would be deleted, I balked. So I changed by pop-up blocker setting to "maximum," and it seems to be working, as for the first time since the hack-attack, I'm able to access the site without being diverted to another site.

    I'm getting something every time I click on ANYTHING on Jouster. Onclickads.net - a blank screen shows up. Help!

    BUT it's also running fine for me on stock Internet Explorer. (After I reset the pop-up blocker, that is.)

    My computer guru swears by Firefox, but I'm afraid to make major changes when I don't know what to expect.

    I selectively cleaned out all my cookies except the ones I knew held passwords. No joy there. there is something hacked about Jouster at this time. Watever you do, do **not** click n any of the pages/links that come up!

    Didn't even know it could be done selectively--thought it was all or none, which is why I didn't try it.
