Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

Possibly not a virus at all. Maybe your video-driver is corrupted or isn't loading properly. I'm not too familiar with Bisto, but try to see if there's a "vga-mode" in the boot options. If so try that. If you can get the machine to give you some kind of display you can then try to repair or update your video drivers!
