I need some technical advice here. Did not see anything related to this on the FAQ or Search. I think this has happend since I offically registered. Used to be when I'd visit the board, I'd see red folders to indicate unread posts in a thread. I don't get those anymore. They're all yellow, whether I've read them or not. I've tried resetting my Preferences numerous times, and it will work when I first come back to a discussion board, but if I sign off and come back later, they're all yellow again, even though they're lots of new posts since my last visit. Can anyone help me out on this? It's making life difficult for this old lady!    | ||

FF - It might be a setting in your actual pc, not your preferences. The computer sets up "cookies" (nice name eh?) everytime you get on the web and go to sites. If the cookies are not being set up when you get on the web, the site can't read if you've been there or not. Thats about the limit of my knowledge though LOL - can't actually you tell you how to fix it unless I waded through the settings myself. I'm a psuedo computer nerd. I just know enough to get myself into trouble. I hope someone else can give you a better answer. ------------------  | ||

The red folders indicate threads that have new posts SINCE THE LAST TIME YOU WERE LOGGED IN. It does not indicate posts you have not read - that would be a huge computing task. Dose this make sence? ------------------ Lobo | ||
