Have you sent your message to FEEDBACK today? If you don't 'talk' to them you have no chance at all to get the problems in the "improved" GenForum fixed or removed. I sent mine ...get busy!

Open letter to GenForum.
I have a suggestion. Find you a well qualified HTML programmer (not just a hack) and hire him to thoroughly review the way the html is written for you current GenForun Web Site. Without a doubt you will find numerous errors and in particular some really antiquated code. That is what is causing the cursor and taskbar names to jump and flicker. The second thing you want to do is rid yourself of the duplication. For instance, the "Search" function in the heading does exactly the same thing as "Family Finder" found in the left margin. Another really ridiculous redundancy is "Community" in the heading and "Community" again the left margin. It's just as if your 'programmer' was just searching for anything to put in the left margin. Why? The full page message board was one of GenForum's strongest features. That combined with really astute programming which permitted the pages to load in record time, made GenForum a pleasure to use. No longer! It is hardly worth the trouble to use your site. Sorry.
