Default Links are causing downloads instead

Whenever I press enter, click on a link or open it in a new page, half of the time it downloads the page. I believe this is only happening on Chrome and XP, because when I use your site on Chrome on my newer PCs with Windows 7, it works fine. I'm not 100% certain of that though.

is this still happening for you today? Can you give me a screenshot or example of which link seems to be prompting the downloads?

thanks

LOL. Is that recent enough for you? Anyway, that's just logging in, but it's an intermittent problem with all hyperlinks on your forum, on Chrome and XP. I don't know much about web programming, but I think the bug is on a service used by all of these links. I'd look for where the downloading case is in the service and debug around there. Well you guys probably work under a non-disclosure agreement but I wish I could see what was causing it.

edit: HOLY COW I spoke too soon.



Have fun with that.

It may be happening on Windows 7 for other people, but it always works for me. Only XP that I've seen. I only use Chrome on both.
