Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 11, 2011, 08:23:08 pm: O.O

Either your browser messed up badly, or you got some weird viruses. When you mentionned you had ads on Omni I got worried. O.O

Also what an insult to have the CX as our banner. :O That said, I'm sure a lot of people will develop Ndless games for it no matter what, though. It just looks funny since normally I would rather put a Prizm pic in there. :P

(Go to the wrench > options > under the hood > clear browsing data > clear the cache

Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 11, 2011, 08:41:08 pm: Yeah I would like to know too if I ever switch to Chrome so I know how to avoid this from happening. :P

Post by: phenomist on March 11, 2011, 08:42:46 pm: Hmm, I guess that something strange overwrote the background image, and Chrome was reading off of that image instead of the actual background image. (This is done to save time and memory, so that you don't have to redownload all the time.) By clearing the cache, the browser is forced to redownload a background image, where it picks the right image.

EDIT: It appears that the banner picture was wrong too. I believe the picture index for omnimaga was shifted leftward or something, causing all of the pictures to remap.

Title: Re: Uhh, I think there is a problem here
Post by: qazz42 on March 11, 2011, 08:46:23 pm: no, I just started chrome for the first time really.... (recent reformat of computer)

I also noted that the cemetech logo was in the middle of a article ><

Post by: TravisE on March 11, 2011, 08:57:22 pm: I've had Firefox do stuff like that on occasion, too. Clearing the cache was also the solution. Apparently, the images in the cache get mixed up. No idea why it happens. Back in my Win98/Me days, I even had this happen to desktop icons on a fairly regular basis and had to use something like TweakUI to force an icon cache clear.

Haha indeed. XD On top of that there was even a reference to gCn in a fake news here not so long ago. XD

And Qazz, strange. Hopefully you don't run into this problem too often in the future.

Post by: qazz42 on March 12, 2011, 07:38:34 am: and the fact that there were about 3 cemetech logos spread around XD

Seriously, some of the images I have no idea where they came from O-o
Title: Re: Uhh, I think there is a problem here
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on March 13, 2011, 01:42:24 am: It could be another site you visited before or something. I'm not sure.
Title: Re: Uhh, I think there is a problem here
Post by: qazz42 on March 13, 2011, 10:56:27 am: Well, seeing that I just started up my computer after a reformat and that the only sites I visited were omni and cemetech, I don't see how AVG and Norton appeared O-o creepy

Post by: Deep Toaster on March 13, 2011, 10:57:54 am: Did you actually reformat your entire hard disk and reinstall Windows from scratch?

If so, maybe they were packaged with it? O.o
