New messages?

Weird behavior...

Every time I open a TFL session, all the forums (fora?) are marked as having new messages. That's weird enough... however, all the folders in the forums (fora?) are yellow instead of red.

I've already killed the cookie; no joy. Using Netscape 4.61 on NT4/SP5.

Did you delete the cookie by going into the "Preferences" ("Profile"?) area having the system do it for you? Did you reboot? Have you given up that nasty glue sniffing habit?

Well I made a pumpkin out of it for Halloween. Also out of a

and a

. Mykl, ATM, T-Rex and I shot the heck out of them. But that's another story.

All seriousness aside, do you have your link going straight to the forum list or do you go through the "enter forums" page? I seem to recall getting the same thing you described until I started going through the home page.

Going through the index page first. FWIW, Internet Exploiter works correctly.

Go through the front door first ( www.thefiringline.com ), no subpages, and see if that fixes it.
