I don't run any messengers or other apps that could be causing this either. Just a browser on a lean, mean Windows install.

It has to be bad, ocassional banners/scripts from one of these ad serv....companies. Anyway, I give up. I'll just put up with the bugs of a non-standard browser, a huge hosts file, and block EVERYTHING from now on. No ads, no banners, no links in text, nothing.
It is very strange that only you and few others are having problems. But yeah, just block what you need to and you're good to go.

I personally believe that us americans are unable to do so because osama.

People out there in our nation don't have that, And I believe that our education like such as south africa and such as the Iraq.

everywhere "such as". And I believe our education should help the US should help the south africa and the iraq and the asian countries so we can build up our future.
