Default Fix for main page?

About 75% of the time I hit the back button to the main page it doesn't load. This has happened on numerous computers in the last few weeks. Are you guys seeing this too? Any fix planned? Thanks

I've never seen that happen, and I use four different computers on a daily basis.

If you want to go to the main page, just click the huge LS1TECH logo instead.

I wish I could find a computer that does this, because I've *TRIED* ... Its a very isolated problem apparently, because I've never been able to put my hands on a machine that exhibits such behavior. My bet is you have some crapware installed on your machine that alters normal browsing behavior. I browse with multiple versions of browsers, on MANY machines, on multiple operating systems -- and all work normally.

Lol!! No. Just good old IE that came on my computer. I never added anything to it. This has happened on my laptop, my girlfriend's laptop, and about 5 or 6 computers at work.

I'm not trying to be an *** about it or anything. I was just wondering if others are having the same problem. Some are. Some nights are better than others. Hell...maybe I'm just imagining it.

Mine started doing it about 2 weeks ago. Just intermittently when using the "back" button, just loads the top portion. I have to refresh it to get the whole page.

I'm glad someone else posted this because I've had the same problem for a while now. I know it's not my computer because it only happens on this website.

Thanks for the screen shot !!! That helps, but still doesn't explain it.. Next time someone sees it, can you dump the source of the page and send it to me? In IE, you hit View, Source ... Then save it to a file, and email it to brian@ls1tech.com ...
