Been like this since Friday. Tried setting DU as exception for attack sites in FF but no change. Centlink and directtv are affiliated and are always trying o get me to bundle when I have nothing to bundle... no TeeVee, use different phone service.

Hope it gets resolved soon cuz this sucks!

Took thirty tries and over ten minutes to open this page and it's still trying to load the comments.
