Has anyone else got this problem? When I am on TMP, as of a few days ago, I can see thread titles but I get an error message when I try to read the messages. Happens from three computers whether using Chrome or Edge. I can see stuff OK from my phone but find that very laborious. Any suggestions? |

I will bet it is the antivirus on your PC. A few days ago AVG would let me onto the message boards, but, on trying to open any topic, blocked it, claiming there was a "Phishing virus". I checked this on another PC and no problem found. So I Googled "AVG blocks Phishing virus" and found countless complaints of this happening inappropriately. AVG admit it! The advice was to get into the antivirus and click "allow" for this site and instantly it worked. (Unless of course I have fallen for a deadly scam and someone now has access to my collection of Waterloo images…..good luck to them) |

That could explain home but not the work PC I tried to test connecting from somewhere other than home. I couldn't get in from work either. |

Try clearing the cache. Sometimes solves problems like this and it is easy to do. Just search on Google "clear cache on (what ever internet browser you are using)" and you should get instructions. On my Mac it is a 15 second job. If it works great, if not, you haven't wasted much time. |

I would power cycle your router too. |

FWIW I am using a PC to access TMP. I do not have any problems. |

I have had this problem for over a year. Clearing the cashe does not help. Bill said that TMP might not recognize your email address, but I don't have any problem posting. Bill said he would look into this but no results so far. |

It's now spontaneously fixed itself without my having done anything…for now |
