It's just been jumping all over the place when I've logged on today.

Only for Mn, no other sites.

I scrolled down to see the page and it jumps back up, happens anytime I click.....anything on here.

I've not been lurking as much as I used to so don't know if it a new, rather annoying MN thing, my PC freaking out or all these stupid long threads f*cking things up.

Hi, I've had the problem of lines being missing for a little while. Thought it was shoddy home computer (Internet Explorer version 6 here too), but then noticed it happens at work too - where computers considerably more powerful and query professional version of IE?

The jumping thing which is referred to - for me, it's like everything but the top advert bar opens, and that follows a few seconds later - so whole screen jumps down an inch. Much more intermittent problem than missing lines, have always assumed it was down to how busy the internet was.

it's still doing it .

I'm still losing chunks of text. Have same IE as Tamum.

tamum · 20/05/2005 18:47

IE version 6.0 here.

lima · 20/05/2005 18:46

actually I only had one jump, so probably not Firefox at fault

emmatmg · 20/05/2005 18:43

I'm using IE but have no idea which version.

nutcracker · 20/05/2005 18:42

I'm also on FF and not having any probs.

noddyholder · 20/05/2005 18:41

me too

lima · 20/05/2005 18:40

not me LeTech - Firefox

LeTech · 20/05/2005 18:38

Sorry to be a pain, are you all using Internet Explorer and if so do you know what version?
(To find out click the Help Menu then click "About Internet Explorer").

I think it may be a "version thing" as we techies like to say when its Microsofts fault

PuffTheMagicDragon · 20/05/2005 18:03

same probs as wigwambam

lima · 20/05/2005 17:04

mine just started jumping - it's an epidemic

tamum · 20/05/2005 17:02

Another one with lines cut off and display suddenly jumping a line or two. It also coincided with the start of the Disneyland ad FWIW.

LIZS · 20/05/2005 16:29

Me too with cut off lines and the blue shaded bar on IE changes from dark to light blue irregularly.

Tinker · 20/05/2005 16:25

My screen is jumping and getting lines cut off as well.

KBear · 20/05/2005 16:23

No probs here

anchovies · 20/05/2005 16:20

I'm getting lines cut off at the top too

WigWamBam · 20/05/2005 16:18

It's cutting the tops of whole lines, or missing the lines out altogether. The scroll bar at the side of the screen keeps moving up and down on its own and flashing, and when I click Active Conversations I keep getting ones from hours ago too.

LeTech · 20/05/2005 16:13

Hi all

Anyone still getting this can you post your symptoms. We're having a look at this end but nothing obvious leaps out. Fairly sure its not linked to the long post titles

Sorry for the hassles, hopefully back to normal soon

101StressPuppy · 19/05/2005 20:52

can we blame that annoying thread anyway just cos it's annoying?

emmatmg · 19/05/2005 20:52

I swear it those bloody long threads.....it's never done before i logged on today.

tamum · 19/05/2005 20:52

Yes, mine too emmatmg, exactly as you described.

sunchowder · 19/05/2005 20:49

Must be the Mumsnet server being affected by all the negative energy!!!!

MarsLady · 19/05/2005 20:49

Yes and it's been bugging me all day.
