Threads appear ok. All index pages, not.
What worked for me was clearing the cache. What did not work for me was the keyboard shortcuts recommended to do that; I had to go in the browser menu and find the button for clearing the data before my problem went away.

Buz, I would recommend, as I do to everyone who I talk to that you ditch IE for either Firefox or Chrome. IE simply isn't a browser that supports the standards decided upon by the people that create them for the web, and web design, for the most part. That aside, you should still be able to clear your browsing history for those pages, according to the following process:

Open Internet Explorer.
IE 8: From the Tools menu choose Internet Options.
IE 9: In the upper right corner, click the small gear icon (to the right of the star icon) and choose Internet Options
On the General tab, under Browsing history, click Delete.
Un-check the Preserve Favorites website data box.
Check the Temporary Internet files, Cookies, and History boxes.
The Form data, Passwords, and inPrivate Filtering data boxes may be left un-checked. You can check them to delete this data if you so choose.
Click Delete.
When finished, click OK to return to your Internet Explorer window.
Close the Internet Explorer window and reopen.

Could not log in this morning at 7:00 am. It's just unnatural to start my day without my bateau fix :D

I hear that. I solved all those problems by getting up at 5:30a. :P

Greetings from Karl ( Austria )
I'm seeing the same thing with Chrome. Page is covered with unread icons or something, red lines in circles. I cleared cache and it didn't help. Seems to work in other browsers, this was written in IE.

I'm seeing the same thing. Little red circles all arranged in rows so you can't read the topics.
Using apple and chrome.
I'm seeing the same thing with PC and Chrome. I also have the white boxes of "quick links" automatically popping up all over the page. It's aggravating to have to constantly close these pop-ups, and I'm not able to close the one at the top left of the page; the one that says "subscribe", "bookmark", "email", and "print". It blocks the first few words of the first few sentences of the first post on the page.

The solution for this problem is posted above, and on previous pages in this thread, for nearly every browser and OS Combination.

Thank you. I missed the second and third pages of the thread, and will try the solutions later.
