Hello everyone. Good to be back here, with my account. It's not that I stopped caring. I actually had been lurking around the site, just as a Guest.(In short, too lazy to touch my account LOL)
However... I've been having some troubles using the site. It has been a week since I first encountered it.
When I'm not logged in, I can only see the site as a basic HTML page(no template, just words and hyperlinks.). And when I am, the site returns to normal, but some other problems arise... _I can't change anything in my account.(My avatar, signature, the theme,...) _I can type in the shoutbox, but that's just it. Unable to use any other functions, not even resetting or sending the message work.
So, anything wrong with the site (or Proboards in general?) recently? Or is it just me? I would love to know some solutions from you. Thanks in advance.

Just guessin' because I had no idea what happened... I don't know if it's because of the antivirus, but I'm sure the website hasn't removed the dislike button.

^ The problems apply to my phone(using the PC version of the site) too, so I don't think the antivirus is the cause.
UPDATE: There're times that the site appears basic even when I'm logged in.

The dislike button has not been removed! It looks like a number of antivirus programs (AVG, Avast, MalwareBytes) had a false positive with Proboards this week. For anyone who is experiencing this issue, try adding Millionaire Fans to your list of safe sites in your antivirus software and let me know if that makes a difference.

If there's no styling, they must've blocked the CSS. Which is weird, because CSS can almost never be a security threat. It must be because the antivirus is refusing connections to some parts of this website...

I also used my phone to visit the site(both the mobile and the PC version) and the problems remained the same as described above. Which I find odd because I can visit the old domain(As a guest, of course.) just fine.

I don't know what browser you're using on your phone, but Opera on my phone still has access to the site with the current interface, not the one you mentioned.

It seems that all is quiet now on the Proboards support side. The antivirus shenanigans are over… except for in this thread!
Out of curiosity, have you tried clearing your cache? I assume you have, but it’s worth asking.

I assume you have, but it’s worth asking. You got it right. I have... I think it's down to connection (or network settings, or the ISP) too? I tried accessing the site using LTE, no luck either... And I also tried switching to another network, and the site loaded perfectly, no issues. (What )

There are no problems with this site, but on The Bus Forum the "New Post" graphics often fail to load. Not sure if I should have mentioned this here but The Bus Forum is also part of ProBoards so yeah.
