Why can't I access MBWorld.org forums on one of my computer?

On one of my laptops, I can't access MBWorld.org forums anymore. I used to be able to access MBWorld.org, but now all I get is a "list" of forums but I can't go to any of them. Here's a photo of the screen I get on that computer. Any ideas what settings on Chrome I need to change?

If I get this screen, I just select my favorite forum (W212) and go. Once there, set Chrome to "Resume Where you Left Off" on exiting.

You are seeing a page without a defined style. If you are using Firefox click View, Page Style and select Basic Page Style.

Or...just bookmark the W213 page, or whatever forum you choose.

Try resetting Chrome to its default settings. (just a guess I don't use Google apps)

I tried all of the above suggestions but I still get the same screen. I guess I'll ask the administrators if they have any suggestions.

The laptop could also be configured to block a required site like, say, ajax.googleapis.com but then it wouldn't just be mbworld that you'd have trouble with.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I cleared my cache, I closed my browser, I shut down the computer for a few days and lo and behold I can get on MBWorld.org now.
