Actually, we fixed our portal yesterday. The site was down for most of the day due to recoding. If you went to our site during that time, then it was possible for your browser to mess up a little, but it wouldnt cause any of your settings to change, or your homepage to change . . unless you clicked on an ad and then clicked yes to cahnge your homepage. If that is the case then it happened because you were trying to click through our portal page without waiting and clicked yes to change your homepage. Our site will not do that automatically.

It was not because of us, it was because you did not read the shoutbox posts, as well as the message on the intro page saying that the site was down. Our site does not mess up anyones browser. There used to be a lot of popups, but that isnt the case anymore, and if you just use the built in popup blockers that come with most browsers, then you wouldnt have a problem at all. If your browser is messed up then it is cus of something else that you did . . .maybe you should stop looking at some of your other sites.

Also, if you have to spend hours resetting your browser settings, then you dont know how to use a computer correctly, and you most likely messed up your browser on some other site and are now trying to blame it on us. It should take less than 1 minute to change all of your internet settings.

your site did a spyware attack on my browser when i visited it . sure you take care of that .

The only ad that we have is DrumCash, which will not install any adware/spyware. It can at times change your default homepage, but that is only if you click yes when it asks you if you want to change your homepage. It will open up popups, 6 at most, but you can easily get around that by having a popup blocker running. Here is what DrumCash says about the whole thing:


As part of the terms of service noted above, your default homepage may have been switched to one that we control. You understand that these changes cannot be reversed without running our un-install program.

You can easily fix that by simply downloading it from here. After running the un-install program, you can changing your default homepage back to that of your preferred site. We never download any spyware, adware, trojans or viruses to your computer. The ONLY change we ever make to any setting on your computer is default homepage in accordance with our terms of service.

Instructions to update your home page after running the un-install program



You wont be asked to change your homepage if you have a popup blocker up though. Why anyone would surf the internet without one running is besides me.
