Problem with forum?

Is anyone else getting a problem where they click on something (like to post something, or to view a thread - it's just been random I think) and then a page full of random gibberish comes up?
If I looked closely, it would probably be classed as java or c code or something similar, but it definitely isn't the forum.??

Cool, confirmed.
Apparently I don't have paint on this computer, so no screenshots, but this is what is being spat out:

Well there are a heap of what appear to be css / javascript / html tags in the header, but you can't quote that / post that sort of thing, so I just included the stuff below it for reference.
Anyway, no problems - you can just hit refresh and get rid of it, just thought I might've been the only one.

50% of the time it is OK
40% of the time it is raw code
10% of the time the download dialog box asks me if I want to download the php file itself
I think it started happening when the files were corrupted a few weeks ago, maybe they are not all fixed yet.
I am using Firefox 2.0.0.14 if it makes any difference.

It's not really a big deal, as long as it works mostly and all it takes is a hit of a button (reload) and it's fine again

I'd love to look into it for you guys, but Im not getting it
Have you all cleared your internet histories? Cookies & temp files etc? As I did have to restore some cgi script files the other day after that outage...

Bennoz, it's all good buddy - we're just a bunch of whingers.
If I get sick enough of it I'll do some more investigations for you, but otherwise don't lose any sleep over it
