    WTFO?? Hey "Secret Committee"!

    Did we take on advertising on the site? All of a sudden, when I click on the GH logo (either here on the page or on the home page), it sends me to this link:

    http://0c5b238b.linkbucks.com/url/ht..._lbGate=277441

    I have to hit my "back button" in order to avoid it. When did this happen? It's kind'a a PITA, but I suppose I could simply get out of the habit of hitting the logo and simply use the back-button. The big question is, was this a result of a "hack"? Or did we "sign-up" for it?

    I had to go to the Safari browser on the iPhone to give it a try. Everything works good on Forumrunner...
    This is what I got when trying to access with Safari.
    " Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/content/40/9553740/html/index.php on line 23"

    Just re-tried on the browser and cannot get to the site at all. Must be the hack job or a new hack job...
    Hum....

    LOL. Could be. But I can only access the site through Forum Runner. I cannot get here on Safari.

    I sent you a text you 10 minutes before you posted this. I had the same problem but I finally went into my history on Safari and found the page and it let me in that way.

    How do I find the history on Safari on the iPhone Arty? I cannot access the site on Safari at all.
    Forum Runner on the iphone is working fine.

    Click on the book (where your bookmarks are in safari browser)
    History should be one of the Options

    So, when you're on Safari, what happens when you click on the logo?

    Ha! I just got all your texts Artie. I didn't realize my phone was still in the bedroom and I'm in my office. Duh!

    Same here though ... I can't get on through Safari either.

    Yep what Arti said... It takes me to the shopping or whatever site... Linkbucks or something.

    I just text Conine.

    He said a bad word... ;-)

    Yep, I just tried to get on with Safari also and can't. I cleared my history (I think) and still can't get on. With my PC, I get on the site ok, just can't get past that page without hitting the back button, which is a PITA since it takes me back through my posts, etc. before getting back to the page.

    Should we wash C09's mouth out with soap?

    Well crap! I cleared my history "again" and still can't get on with Safari. What am I doing wrong? I simply went to Safari ... then clicked on the "book icon" which brings up my history, then I hit "clear". I still can't get through.

    You should not have cleared your history Numbnuts. That was the only way to get back to a workable link in Safari. Now you are dead in the water on Safari.

    You should have clicked on VIEW history and clicked on any "old" GoodHunting link from several days ago and they would have brought you in.
    But now you have cleared all them so you are toast till it can get fixed.
    Or download Forum Runner.

    Well, you said this:

    Found a place to clear history but not to view history under Settings, Safari....
    Then Arti said this:

    Click on the book (where your bookmarks are in safari browser) History should be one of the Options
    So, I cleared my frigging history! Dang! I'm locked out on the iPhone.

    Yes that's what I said. I said I found a place to clear history (but I don't want to do that) so I was Asking Arty where to VIEW history.
    He said he went back in his history and clicked on a old link and it brought him in. Any pUMpHEAD would know if you clear it you cannot go back and then use it.....

    Hey bite me! Excuuuuse meeeee if I'm accustomed to using stuff that actually works as it's supposed to. I guess you get that way after driving nothing but Toyotas for 30 years.
