> So here's the really psycho thing. For the past week, when I use Netscape's back button while in the forum, it tries to find -- get this: message number 8888, then it just hangs there and will hang there all day if I let it, without even returning an error message. It says "document done" at the bottom, but you can see the little slidy thingy moving back and forth like it's still searching for something, but it just hangs. And if I go to another site, it doesn't load all the way, and even if it looks like it does, the buttons and links don't work.

It's like Spider-Boy said: all those 8's are actually infinity signs standing on end. Your computer is now caught in an infinite, indefinite loop as it obsessively tries to access post 8888.html. Your only hope of cure, when you see this starstruck behavior, is to immediately hit the Stop button and threaten to torture the computer without mercy, by typing in the dreaded www.msn.com
