Not sure if I've inavertantly hit an odd button but PPRUNE shows up on a plain white background, blue letters to the links etc - its horrid, can someone tell me WTF I've done & how to undo it?
Many thanks

I think prooone stores its settings in a cookie which it deletes on exit.

you could try, if you wish, logging out then deleting all the cookies on your machine and logging back in.

that might cure it.

Nope - that didn't work - even writing this text is in a weird box (grey in colour & faintly resembling an on line calulator)- I assume I've changed a view setting somehow.

Are you using Firefox and Avast? I had the same problem with Pprune (only) for a few weeks, which was caused by an Avast Web Reputation Plug-in. If I disabled it or used Internet Explorer, viewing returned to normal. I think the security plug-in was wrongly flagging up some text graphics.
Recent programme updates to Firefox and Avast seem to have cured the issue.

I had the same issues few weeks back. I was told to check about pictures downloading but this idea did not work on the FF issue I am using. It cured itself after a week or so.

I get that but only when the internet performance is very poor (sadly too often where I am at the moment).

It goes away of its own accord but refreshing the wind sometimes gets it back to normal.

Thanks everyone - only happens on my works computer & only started yesterday, could it be the recently installed firewall that we have had to put in causing the problem? The connection shouldn't be an issue as I have a one to one contention ratio (I think that's the term).
Weird & highly frustrating :*
