Hello! I have cleared my browser cache and up graded to the latest Firefox. Frankly I'm tired messing with it. Others have reported the same problem.

There are no issues with my PC. I really don't believe it's my problem

Thank you for helping!

Hello! Sorry! After carefully reading the error, I decided to exit Skype. I can now access the topic.

This is very embarrassing, because this suggestion was offered earlier. I don't understand why Skype would stop me from opening this topic.I can open all the other topics here on GTG! Very Strange!!!!

I guess this topic can be marked as solved.

Thanks GTG!

doneato!

I suggest you to uninstall any Skype extensions you have donetao. Personally, I don't use them and find them useless, specifically the "Skype click to call" one, haha !

They aren't needed except if you click on telephone numbers displayed on the web to call them from Skype.

Hello Aura!

I unticked those and now I can open the topic with no trouble. Is that strange or is there a logical answer??

Why is it only this one topic that is doing this??

Hello!

You can mark this topic as solved when ever you choose. It makes no sense to me why options in Skype stopped me from opening this topic, but it seems they did.

 

 

Computers are strange. Some day I'm going to accept that when I get a little older. I'm only 76 years young and I forget about as much as I learn every day :smashcomp:

Thanks GTG. This is a great forum!

I believe that Skype Click To Call was interpreting some of the numbers in the thread as an actual phone number and was trying to resolve it, change it into a clickable link to open Skype to phone that number when clicked on it but that it failed, then the plugin crashed, making the webpage freeze.

That would be my guess.
