I don't seem to have that problem. Then again I am using Google Chrome.

I am curious why you think this to be the case. More details might help me diagnose the problem.

Nice try on adding a little white space on the left side. It actually made this puzzle look worse, aesthetically, and would actually have been better to fill it in red.

kaspersky antivirus warns me every time

I have had problems with the program suddenly shutting down in the middle of solving a puzzle. Usually it will restore the puzzle grid but not what I have solved so far, unless I have saved it. So I find myself saving every few minutes, which is annoying, but I do it because I am addicted to solving pbn puzzles! :) I don't have this problem with anything else I do on my computer, so I agree with samanye that it seems to be just this program.

I have the same problem as nancy.

Can you give me the exact wording of the warning?

I don't believe there is a virus or a trojan. It's not quite impossible, but it's pretty darned close to impossible.

Webpbn does involve a lot of fancy javascript that dynamically loads more bits of fancy javascript. None of those bits are anything like a trojan, but dimwitted software might mistake it for such.

I can't really figure this out without knowing what Kaspersky thinks it is seeing. Surely there is some more detailed description of the problem?

I had the same problem as Nancy Kay when I was using Internet Explorer. Now I always use Google Chrome with webpbn and have not had any problems with unexpected shut downs.

Never had the problem.

Why would your computer need a condom? :P
