Windows 8

Google Chrome

Deleted anything neowin from history.

Dumped the cache

Deleted all neowin cookies.

Open up again, and the damn 4 square ajax loading spinner stays on nearly every page.

I have the exact same problem. It's annoying as hell!

If I had to guess, its related to the notifications. Will have another dev look at it in the morning.

If you mean PM notifications, that's working. The comments, however, are not working for me either in IE10 in addition to the bug I filed earlier.

Just like to say it's been like this for a long time for me.

Site still works fine. Just always has the loading square in the top right

This is the behavior as well on Firefox/Windows 7 and Safari on Mac OS X. Haven't noticed it in iOS. The spinner sometimes seems to get stuck spinning (although I'm not always sure if it is just getting some content somewhere very slowly) but everything still seems to work OK. I haven't had issues where I am unable to respond to comments due to it (I think)...

It shows when the minispy is updating, or when you are saving a post in the forums.. I'm on Chrome Beta/Windows 8 and it doesn't stick for me, but we'll get Redmak to take a look.

Out of curiosity, are you using AdBlock on Neowin? because I believe that blocks certain elements of the minispy, which we can't do anything about anyway..

I just finally used Ad Block to create a filter and selected the spinner and blocked it to finally get rid of it.

Had this issue with IE10; blocked it with a custom stylesheet:

.spinner[id="ajax-spinner"] {
	display: none;
	}

    • This hidden Windows 11 setting makes the system feel a lot faster

      Also going from color to B&W is 100% noticeable. Does not mean anything is actually faster / more productive.
    • Governments begin warning all users on Windows 10 end of support and how to deal with it

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Governments begin warning all users on Windows 10 end of support and how to deal with it by Sayan Sen Last month, Microsoft issued a reminder about Windows 10's upcoming end of support date. The various hardware vendor partners of Microsoft like Asus have also published their guidance for the same, such that users can prepare for the "mandatory upgrade to Windows 11." While the upgrade is certainly not mandatory, as users can continue sticking to Windows 10 if they want, at least for a while, the governments are now beginning to issue advisories on the upcoming massive change. The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) under the Government of India (GoI) has published guidance on the matter. Like Microsoft, Asus, and others, the GoI has also recommended upgrading to Windows 11 to keep their systems secure. In the new advisory, it writes: For enterprises as well as individual users who need more time to plan the upgrade, the CERT-In has reminded them about the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. It writes: If you recall, Microsoft also extended the support for Microsoft 365 apps like Teams, Word, Excel, Outlook, OneDrive, and more, for another three years. You can find the advisory here under CIAD-2025-0023 on CERT-In's official website. Meanwhile, the United States' Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is probably going to publish its own official guidance sometime soon, similar to how it did for Windows 7 and others. Others like the EU are going to follow suit as well. If you do not like Microsoft's latest OS offering, you can also switch over to Linux. Recently, LibreOffice urged users to do so, citing the "real costs" of Windows 11.
