Anybody else's little red "new" next to threads that you have not opened persisting long after you have opened the thread (and no new posts have been acrued) or Am I doing something wrong to cause a malfunction with the program?

If it happens again, hit the F5 button to force a reload of the page. Sometimes browsers will just reopen a page from the cached files.

Thats exactly what happened; the whole thing repeated until I rebooted the thing and switched over to the laptop. The computers run non-stop 3 weeks (tax season) then I will do PM on them on 4-16. Tired like I am.

Windows, what a concept!

The server this site is running on: up 239 days, 34 min

My desktop has only been up for twelve days. But that's only because I turned it off to add 4 gigs of memory to it.

Definitely I am not a vulgar personality, but the term FUBAR keeps coming to mind every time I walk into the office. Tomorrow I am going to the teeny-tiny office in the mountains and see if I can mess of those computers, too no, stop, enough!

By the way, for those of you too young to appreciate the significance of the Subject #2 quote, check the first entry in the "Popular culture" section of the following link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Funk_&_Wagnalls
From there, you might enjoy going over to the Wikipedia article on "Laugh In."

Thanks for the prompting, Len. I missed the significance of #2 (but I did not want to bring attention to the fact)

You are absolutely right!! I have not thought this through, correctly. I was limited in my choice because so many of the "Queens" had blonde hair (mine is black) so I had to match things up. Now to think of it, Cleopatra would be a great role model
