No worries GJ, I have no axe to grind as to which browser you use, I merely posted that to show that it does not happen in Firefox.
Like you I am somewhat "stuck" on the browser I use, Firefox, and wouldn't change for quits. Haven't used IE since Adam was a boy, tried Chrome (3 times) and can't get on with it, so Firefox it is.
It is interesting to note that a lot of the problems reported since the update have been from IR users of various versions.
It shows that the developers of vBulletin and/or the skin we are using have not done an enormous amount of testing in IE.
Yep, we have been issued with special "invisibilty" glasses.:DQuote:

Make sure you have the setting for receiving email notifications or PMs ticked under Settings->General SettingsQuote:

Thanks Fred,
I just checked now and it is still set to receive emails. I shall wait and see whether it was just the one stray PM or if it keeps happening.
Just got a PM before and an email.....gotta love gremlins!Quote:

It's worse in the late afternoon evenings and there are a few of the toymaking blokes having similar issues to the point of frustration too [I've had emails saying this]. Appreciate all the work by the computer people & admin staff BUT please can this issue be addressed before we loose members, thank you. Cheers, crowie
PS – happened as I was trying to do this reply 3 times…..woodwork forums not responding…..even saw the "auto save flash!!!
Crowie, I've fed this up the chain but I am not sure what can be done about it as it seems to be an IE8 behaviour only. Hopefully you'll get a response soon
Thank you....Quote:

To all,
the admin and tech staff (both of them) are trying to re-create this problem with IE 8 but can't.
Would you please report issues in the format set out between the lines below (copy and alter it to suit), it will make finding problems much easier and save PMs to and fro to try and sort it out.
