I am having a problems with the website [link removed] while using chrome.  it worked fine on Tuesday morning and at night I went to log in it I got a black screen with a blue line like it was trying to load something.  The site allows me to log in and put my password in but then I get the black screen.  At one point it stayed on long enough for me to see something about downloading flash but it quickly went to the black screen. It is now Sunday, Feb 25 and I still cannot get into the website using chrome  The site works fine on firefox and explorer although I have lag time while using them that is why I want to get back to using chrome. I have not had any problems using chrome on other games that so it may be a problem with their site, I have directed it to allow flash to run all the time, run java, and plugins.  I have cleared my caches, installed shockwave and disabled the hardware accelerator.  Nothing has worked.  I have contacted the website and they suggested I reload chrome but it has automatic updates so I have the last version.  I have tried all kinds of suggestions on the internet and nothing has worked.  If someone could please try the website and give me your feedback it would be greatly appreciated.  My next stop is the geek squad at best buy because this is driving me nuts.  Thank you for your help.

    That link is bogus.  It redirected to a fake amazon site.  I'd recommending just copying and pasting the address from the affected page; however, it's probably not super necessary.  Given the timing, I can guess pretty effectively about what's going on.

    Chrome is pretty aggressive about introducing new security restrictions on web content.  We haven't released a new Flash Player in a couple weeks, so it's most likely either a problem on the content provider's side (in which case, they'll probably notice and fix it when they see their traffic drop off), or it's a change to Chrome that most likely requires them to do something in a more secure way (again, they'll probably notice and fix it when they see their traffic drop off).

    The easiest thing to do is to try another browser, as whatever else you use will probably be a little more forgiving.

    Okay, that link works.  I think you'd made a typo or something. 

    None of this is actually Flash.  It's all JavaScript.  It's also working fine for me.

    You might try clearing your browser cache.

    sorry if I gave you the wrong site I apologize for that. I do have java scripts enabled. If it is working for you is there anything I can check. I don't get the black when the website first opens I get it after I log in. There is a screen that comes up about downloading flash but it goes away to quick and then I get the black screen so something isn't connecting properly.
