this one to be exact: Partnered: JACT Offers Rewards for Members (US only right now)

this is the second time now that this thread load on its own, come to think of it I may have been the third time. It just did seconds ago, I close the tab before it gets to fully load.

Question, why is it doing that, at first I thought its my naughty mouse hand accidentally clicking on the thread, but, that would mean the tab i am currently in will be reloaded, but its a different tab.

I am a bit paranoid at this moment, could someone please check why it is doing that.

Thanks.

I just loaded Riverside several times, then loaded the thread itself several times - nothing seems to amiss.
It only loads when I click it and it loads in the tap I'm using.

Pumpkin, what browser are you using? Maybe it's that.

Im' using Firefox as well, so it's probably not that.

Do you still experience this odd behavior Pumpkin? If so, still on that thread exclusively?

nope, the first time this happens was roughly a month ago, and the recent one was on 29 may, when I started this thread.

not happening now. Its not like it keeps popping up, the last time it pop up, i didn't even notice, because I usually have a few guru threads open at the same time. this time, I only have one tab open and then suddenly there it is another tab starts to load. so I closed it.

thanks!

No problem. If you discover this happening again let us know.

Sometimes i get a new tab open but is usually from a link within a post.
Its possible ff may be playing up and used a setting to open links within a new tab - i know IE used to be able to be set to do that.It also could be a ff bug and with the regular updates we get to ff it could have fixed it , dont think ff tends to list what things have been updated/fixed.

The browsers act differently in different situations. It's weird I know but that's the way it is.
