No, still does it, there's nothing wrong with my computer... If there was, I'm computer literate enough to find and get rid of the problem. I think it's just browser difficulties and not being exactly compatable, or something of the like. It doesn't bother me, it's just strange... Also, I noticed another thing. It will tell me the position, ie. Administrator, Member, Guest, etc. at the home page on the bottom, but it won't tell me exactly WHO is on. Weird, but oh well.

Well, Im dreadful with computers but even as a Mac User (stop laughing lost!), I noticed a tremendous difference in changing Browsers. I found one more compatible with my system and now I move much faster. Maybe you just need an upgrade?
That would annoy me not to see who is on and such. Wonder what else you may be missing out on. Lucky you...maybe u wont see Trash! ;D

On the contrary. Macs are far superior to the standard PC running Windows. But, alas, Windows machines usually end up being cheaper, since they're everywhere. So, guess what? I get a Windows PC for my graduation present. Oh well, I guess it could be worse. Oh, nevermind, it can't . Also, the reason I am using the browser I am (Mozilla Firefox) is because I wanted something better and faster than the antiqueated Internet Explorer that is so great at letting viruses in and all sorts of other crap nobody wants. But, alas again, the mainstream of people are still stuck with IE and won't let go, so most websites and such are directed towards it. My browser works well most of the time, but every once in a while I notice small differences, but they usually don't really matter or make any difference performance-wise. So, until the rest of the world catches up, I'll be sitting here waiting ;D. So, trust me, I would so rather have a Mac right now, but that's the way things go... LostPeon P.S. I CAN see who's on, but only by looking at one of their posts and seeing whether it says "Online" or "Offline" on the column on the left.

Well you may hate me for saying this but I got this computer for free. My mother got it as a gift from family in the USA but when she came home with it she put it in her clothes drawer to keep it safe from thieves. Its a cute little titanium laptop that didnt see the light of day until I asked to borrow it one day. Ive had it ever since. My mum just isnt a computer person. At least I knew how to turn it on! ;D
And even on a mac, I agree with you about internet explorer. I was using a mac version until about one month ago when my hard drive crashed and I took the opportunity to change over. Ive never looked back. Dump the IE folks - LostPeon is right!

Weird, now suddenly it only seems to be happening on some threads, not all... I'm still confused as to why this happens...

i think its becuase of mozilla firefox. i used to use internet explorer but I changed to firefox about 4 weeks ago. ever since i came on the website with firefox i noticed the same things that you noticed lost. so i guess the only way to see that stuff would be with ie
