I seem to recall this was mentioned ages ago, probably on this thread's last incarnation, that the assistant is nothing to do with PA. Were it so, one would think they could exert some control over it and stop it from crashing their server as it does. What do I know? I'm not an IT lecturer, nor have I ever been. :cool:
LOL. If only eh.....its effectively hitting F5 on the website constantly....and many listeners are doing it and basically turning it into a DDOS attack.Debt: May 15: £17335 Jul 16: £13874 Jan 17: £11,606 Dec 18: £8,308 Sept 19: £4,969 Jul 21: £890

Well, given it was me that mentioned it on the last thread, I'm glad at least one person paid attention :rotfl:
And, put it like this. As long as Prolific let you log in, it can't stop you hitting refresh 60 times a minute on their website and clogging up their tubes. And it doesn't matter whether you're doing it manually or via a plug in. I would imagine the simplest way to control the plug in is just to delete all the profiles that consistently refresh 60 times a minute to bring things down to a manageable level, but for obvious reasons I doubt they'd go there!Start mortgage date: August 2022; Start mortgage amount: £240,999; Original mortgage free date: August 2056

I think my extension has died. It used to bring up all these studies I could not do as soon as I opened the interweb but now nothing happens.0

I managed to break visual ping yesterday - is that the one you use? I have forgotten how to set it again and haven't got the original thread to look back on! It's tough being technically challenged like me0 -

Please don't show it to mikep22, he'll take the p.
I use the Prolific Assistant, the one mikep thought belonged to them but is nothing to do with them... And he's an IT lecturer so maybe there is hope for us all. :rotfl:0
