      Hey there Alerod - I moved your post here since we're getting such reports from some users lately and wanted to keep things neat and under one thread. 

      Can you please let me know if I may reach out directly to the email address you use for your forum's profile so we can have a more in depth look together with all of our tools available? 

      Let me know and we'll take it from there.
