Re: OT - a tech WTF?? moment viewing Godfrey's flikker page
Thanks, Igor ... I'll keep this email for sure It had only happened on flickr - I had two other windows open I know for sure...it was in Firefox that it happened - I didn't think of trying to go there in chrome, I had merely clicked on the link... Never saw anything like it before. ann On 11/18/2015 12:50 PM, Igor PDML-StR wrote: Ann, This is likely some sort of corruption of the information.

Otherwise, it is either a glitch in the browser or a problem with the main RAM. That might be helpful for you to know what is the likely culprit if/when the computer fails in the future.
