I agree, that is how it has always worked. But that is not what I am talking about.

Sometime over the last week the behaviour changed. Now when I open my browser up, go to the BBS and look in a forum most of the threads that have completely new messages that I haven't looked at do not have orange icons. These new messages are not ones that I have seen before at all (i.e. I have not gone into these threads and then moved out of them).

Further to this, if new messages are posted in a thread while I am reading the forum that the thread is in and then I go back to the forum's front page I still do not get orange icons for these threads. This did not happen before.

I have made some changes to my Internet connection recently, I am now using an ADSL line rather than a modem, but I can't conceive of a way that this would cause this change in behaviour.

Is no one else seeing this ?
