Anyone else seeing strangeness? As I normally don't show any more graphics than absolutely necessary I'm in no position to judge what's "normal".

There are 2 pirate skulls with swords on each side of the screen, as well as a couple of blue green pictures of an android playing a guitar......
That's the best way I can describe it.
They are on the home page and also when displaying a forum thread.

This just showed up last night when I got home from work and reloaded the page about 10 hours ago.

I am not seeing that on my computer, but there are several things not quite right with the top of the screen.

Now it looks fine again, except for the New AP task thread stretching some of the graphics.

These thingys are at the sides, towards the top portion of the page, and are making the forum posts display in a narrower format in the middle than normal because they are taking up space on the sides.

Hmmmm...
Let me work on this.
As I make this post, I have loaded the page on a different computer.
All looks normal here.

Scanning my daily driver with AVG right now.
That is 7, this is XP.
Both on Seamonkey browser.
This is an older version, my daily driver is on a beta version, but I was running that for a while with no ill effects.
This just started last night.

AVG free scan found nothing, downgraded to the last approved version of Seamonkey.

Still looks like the screenshot.

Just tried Firefox on this same computer.
That works OK....Hmmmmmm.

Cleared the cookies for KWSN.  Still showed the hacked screen as guest and after logging in again.

The graphics are the avatar images for users corsair and Fredericx51 - no need to suspect any external influence there, just a rendering problem.

My left-hand 'Recent Topics' navigation box is currently stretched by an over-length (and non-wrappable) thread title for message 49099, but is otherwise normal.

I suggest you try clearing your browser image cache, and see what it looks like then.

Thank you, Richard.
That at least puts my mind at ease.
Could have been something the beta browser did.

I have to run off to work in just a few minutes, but I'll try to clear it up when I get home tonight.
Thanks again very much!!!

From the screenshot, it looks as if these two graphics have got corrupted in the image cache.

If things are working normally, you should see two sections of the normal 'pipework' from the Lunatics theme above: if the images are corrupted, you'll probably see the two avatars again.

Cleared the browser cache and all is back to normal again....
Don't think I ever saw something that crazy happen before.

Thank you once again, Richard.
