Whe I sometimes click on a forum here, like the game center in the rockman exe section, sometimes, I see nonsense on the page, like a couple of words and symbols mixed up together. Is it like, some kind of bug in the forum? Because this is kinda strange. :/

It depends. It could be attributed to a lot of things--data corruption upon loading the page, a lack of a proper plugin or codec necessary to view the page, and so on. Most of the time, that problem is remediated by refreshing the page or hitting back and trying again.

Now, if the gibberish appears ALL of the time, ten you have a problem with the browser. I know for a fact that Safari sometimes clashes with this forum, and I get gibberish. But, upon refreshing, the page returns to normal.

(How do you know I'm using Safari? -_-; Confused )Anyway, so it's a problem with my browser, or, a forum virus that you say? :/

It's Safari. I know because it's the browser of choice for all of NYU's public terminals which happen to be Macs. :grr:

Anyway...it's a fleeting problem. Just refresh the page and it'll be right as day. And that should be that.
