Only happens to me on the Wall Street Journal's site, and on just one spot on the page (does not matter the section of the WSJ you're viewing.) A box is supposed to load for clickable stories but doesn't, plus I can't read comments on the stories. This is what it looks like in Chrome:

WSJ.com was working for me in Chrome just fine until about a week ago, and I cannot fix it. I've cleared the browser cache & java cache, updated java, adblock doesn't seem to have anything to do with it. What am I missing?

This is what it's supposed to look like (IE9):

Odd I had the exact reverse situation. In Google tools, click options, click under hood is use DNS checked for pre-fetch? If not then click it.
