        Firefox + Adblock Plus add-on + (EasyElement+EasyList) filter subscription = Absolutely no ads not only on Boxing Scene but the entire internet.

          I may start using firefox but it doesn't change the fact this site is a joke when it comes to pop ups and viruses.

              I use Safari 4. I find it faster and the history search is VERY useful. I think I will switch though.

                yeah, some of the ads are annoying.

                but I'd rather they get more bandwidth or something so the forums don't crash during big fights.

                    Firefox with Adblock Plus will solve your problem...

                      Wow...I'm not having any of these problems you guys are describing. I am running win 7 build 7200 with kaspersky for workstations beta, ei8 with med high settings. Sometimes the site seems a bit sluggish, but that's about it. I ran 4 different apps occassionally including *******bytes, and i come up clean with every app i run.

                      But I'm a neat freak. I delete crap like cookies (disabled) temp files and use ccleaner. Great little app, but be really careful. you could mess up your pc. I build my own pc's and have a mid-high end pc, but learned a few tricks to keep the buggies away. So i know my machine inside out. If i get 1 trojan i re-install windows, cuz it opens back doors for lots of nasties. but i find win7 to be very stable and solid.

                      Already have pro upgrade pre-ordered, but it can do a clean install. Got the $100 promo. The only diff between ulimate and pro is bitlocker, ( you can get better free) and the language packs. That's the only difference.
