Geez ... I've tried 15 different machines... Firefox, Opera and IE.

No problems.

The buttons were created using Flash. Ever had issues with flash files before?

How the heck would I know? I've never had a problem before. The homepage is the only site i've ever had this trouble at and the only one I have it on now. It used to work just fine. I play some FLASH ( you are talking about Macromedia?)games and there's no problem there.
I really wish I could be of more help. If you want me to keep trying after updates i'll be happy to. For now, I just don't go there. It is very slow as I scroll down. Almost as if the page is trying to reload as I scroll. Also the same pixelated look around the button edges as I mouse over them remains. Let me know what I can do to help.

Don't happen on any of my machines (IE6, IE5, Opera, Firefox)

Maybe graphics driver related??

What make/version are the people having problems using?

Aha! The issue I was having with the webpage buttons disappeared when I removed this IE6 update:

http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/Bulletin/MS06-013.mspx

The update messes with the ActiveX controls, at least for me.

helpful? http://msdn.microsoft.com/ieupdate

If it was graphics driver related wouldn't I have the same problem on another site somewhere? As it is now katrinas is the only site I have this issue on and it's ok as long as the buttons are not in view. Confused

I don't have that problem on any of the systems I have tried (three at home and about 20 here so far), but I do have one system that takes a very long time to show each page. As far as I can ascertain, it tries to install Macromedia Flash version 8 for every button then forgets that it just did that...

Ni! Mr. Green

Well, I just tried upgrading to version 8 in an attempt to solve the problem. No effect. Exactly the same as before. Confused Sad

Ars Technica just nicked 4th place overall from us by virtue of a large jump @ EON. Mad Mad

I've just been sniffing around the dark and dank areas of the Fortress and stumbled across a couple of minor boobettes (lucky ole me) - on the WCG page the second paragraph of blurb is CPDN, and the BOINCSynergy button links to their CPDN page.

(Not sure if this is the right place for this, but a poke around didn't reveal any bug report/suggestion box)

I am having issues updating the website. Sir Furry I followed all the steps in your email and now my update is stuck as a .html.txt file in my FTP client and refuses to execute so it can update.

Doh! Nice catch.
As for where to report errors here will work. Thanks.
