I Can't Get My Smilies Activated
For a couple of weeks now, none of the smilies in this forum will activate. All's I get is the picture, but no action or movement. The jaw drop will only show the face, but no jaw dropping. Likewise with the waving smilie in my sig. He just stands there waiting to wave. Is there a general problem with this forum, or is it just my computer? I haven't had any probs on any other sites.

It's Likely the problem is on your end. Maybe the video card driver needs to be re-installed. Can you drag a window around the desktop? Does it hang up as well? Otherwise, check for spyware with Adaware and Spybot or try things out with another browser like Mozilla's Firebird.

I had the same problem and found that my firewall was causing it. As a quick check, disable yours then go into a post that has a smiley. If the smiley works, then you know that you need to play with the firewall settings. If that's not it, then I have no clue.
Good luck!
