Every CP page auto-scrolls to the bottom
I have been having an annoying issue on my home PC where if I go to any page within CP it starts to load then I get a (Not responding) message on the browser tab, then when it does finish loading it auto-scrolls to the bottom of the page. This is true on the Lounge main page, any thread I enter whether I am going in by clicking on the thread link or the Go To Next Unread link, and even on the page I opened to start this thread.
I am running Win 10. This is happening in Chrome, Edge, and even IE. I also have a laptop (Windows 7) on the same network (although wireless instead of direct connect) that does not have this issue. Anyone else seeing this? Any ideas on how to get this annoyance to go away? Thanks! |

BTW, I am not seeing this occurring on any other sites either so I suspect it may be vBulletin related.

It's likely an issue with one of the ads at the bottom. I had that problem for a while and it was so frustrating I ended up installing an adblocker, eventually blacklisting the correct ad address. For some reason, one particular ad grabs focus on the page, which immediately pulls your scroll bar to the ad at the bottom. It can be indication of malware, but not always. Run a Malwarebytes scan just to be safe.

The scan did pick up a couple of things but even after a reboot I was still having the same issue. |

Just Alt-F4, and let us know how it works.

That's been happening to me, as well. Pages take forever to load, and then when they do it starts you off at the bottom of the page. When it happens, I run Malwarebytes and HitmanPro. Seems to clear up the issue for a bit. I was starting to think I got thrown on the MU list, lol.
I've been having a similar problem on Imgur. Takes forever to load a page, but it doesn't auto scroll me to the bottom. Fish is probably on to something with the ads on the pages. |

I had the problem. Installed an ad blocker and the problem disappeared, so it looks like Fish got it right earlier in the thread.
