It is an error in the ads and it can be fixed by blocking the ads... http://www.aimadhack.net/

Make sure that following isnt blocked by the HOSTS file-127.0.0.1 ar.atwola.com or 127.0.0.1 pr.atwola.com, and if that dosent work you can disable script debugging Internet options > advanced tab.

Disable script debugging (uncheck)
Display a notification about script errors (uncheck)

And are you useing any AIM Triton plugins?

Opps sorry for the late reply ive been kinda busy, well anyways you can go to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\DRIVERS\ETC\HOSTS

Then you will open the file with notepad and look for 127.0.0.1 ar.atwola.com or 127.0.0.1 pr.atwola.com

Delete the two entries or place a "#" sign and one space before the entry.

For example:

# 127.0.0.1 ar.atwola.com

Then save :whistling:.

Well just go through that path instead of trying to enter it in the bar or searching for it. And you are useing Windows Xp ?? If not then it will be a diffrent path.
