Possible issue, maybe on my end
On my main computer at home, going to any JUB page takes me to the opening "splash" page. If I sign in, it says "thanks for signing in" (as per usual) then takes me back to the splash page...even though the URL suggests I'm now on the list of forums. Clicking a link to a forum page (the "recent forum post ones") takes me to a url that seems correct, but again, I only see the splash page. I don't have any trouble accessing the site on my phone, ipad or other computer. It's possible I got hit with adware or something, but 1. No other site is having any issues, and 2. the only "ads" I'm seeing are the standard JUB ones on the splash page. I'm going to swap my password just o be safe, but I wanted to know if you knew anything.

Hmm .. this looks like a cookie problem. Do you have any kind of security software or addon that blocks cookies? Often you will find the settings somewhere "privacy" related.

Actually, Firefox had an update to install. After doing that, it's working just fine. Not sure what the issue was, but it appears to be gone now.

Re: Possible issue, maybe on my end
OK, the issue I was having with JUB is back. I'm attempting to isolate the issue, or at least get some more data on what the problem is. Here's what I've found out so far.
* My bookmark for JUB in Firefox is set to the Hot Topics page in the forum. Clicking that link opens JUB, and the URL states I'm on the Hot Topics page, but the page is the opening JUB main page, complete with empty sign-in spaces.
* I often (but not always) get a pop-up window for some JUB hot gay chat...thing.
* Attempting to sign-in on this page with an incorrect name and password gives me the standard "this name and password don't match" error.
* Attempting to sign-in on this page with the correct name and password gives me the "Thank you for signing in G-Lexington"...which then takes me back to the JUB page I was just on (complete with empty sign-in areas). Again, the URL claims I'm now on the Hot Topics page.
* Lower on that page are links to "current forum threads". Clicking on one of these changes the URL to what looks like the correct page, but again, the screen shows the main page.
In short, using JUB on Firefox on my computer won't allow me to move beyond the first "welcome" page, no matter what I click on.
Here's where it gets problematic.
* Running AdAware after attempting to use JUB on Firefox brings up problems. Anywhere from five to forty-seven.
* After running the scan, I ask AdAware to fix the problems. It does so.
* Running another scan after this brings up no issues.
Both IE and Chrome display JUB with no issues. I can navigate normally. I haven't checked to see if opening JUB in either causes AdAware to find problems - I'm going to check that next.
In a nutshell, opening JUB in Firefox runs me into a wall, and apparently puts something the AdAware don't like on my computer. I don't have the first problem with IE or Chrome, and I'm checking on the second. I don't know if this is some sort of issue with Firefox, or maybe I've got malware somewhere deep in my computer that's exploiting some sort of issue with Firefox. I should point out that I pull up JUB in "mobile mode" at work (to keep the porn pics to a minimum), and I've had no problem there, either.

To rule the last one out, you should check this:

I'm running a full complete scan while I'm at work just to verify that it's clean. Once I get home, I'll open JUB in the other two browsers, use it a bit, then run another scan to see if it finds something again.
