Hung Screen All Weekend Long!
It's happening all weekend long. Not sure if it has anything to do with system slowness or whatever updates IB's doing to FT.
Anyway, I have hung screens when I start or reply to threads, RBP, or send PMs. My Firefox would indicate contacting FT website in the FOREVER state. There's no way for me to confirm if my RBPs go through.
What I do is after 30 seconds (or longer) of hung screen, I will open another window and see if my reply posts (or threads) have been posted. I also check the sent fold for PMs. They are there. So are the hung screens in the other browser windows.
This is not the first time for this sort of problems. How "unstable" is the current state of our FT site w/ IB Beta Search?

Started for me on Friday(?) and definitely on Saturday.
When I sent PM's, I saw that they were sent 3x's. I kept clicking 'send'. The message went half way through. Then, I stopped the message and re-sent. Repeat.

Pretty bad here too, whatever browser.
For every post I've made this weekend, I've had to submit it twice to get it to take.
And PMs/RBPs just hang forever, even though they do get sent.

This appears to be one of those pesky intermittent problems. The tech team has been looking into it and has as yet been unable to resolve it satisfactorily. Of course, the effort is ongoing.
Thanks all for relaying your experiences. Hope to have this repaired very soon.

It's hanging badly this afternoon. I have to keep two screens going for FT so that I can refresh one to see if what I attempted to post on the other has indeed done so. Further, I've gotten as many as 3 RBPs from a member whom I am confident was unaware that 3 were submitted.
