Check out a couple of Windows forums. Didn't get any answers there either. You got plenty of decent help here. It just wasn't what you wanted to hear. Absolutely not and a couple regulars here agree. I never refused any suggestions. Most all of them I had already tried without success and I stated that at the time. If that is refusing help then you need to get a better understanding.The first suggestion was to reinstall. Which seems to be the standard answer out of Windows users who don't know what they are doing. Which at that time I didn't want to. I wanted to see if there was a solution to the problem. For your information I did finally do a reinstall and the same problem is still there so that was not the solution. -- Caver1 |

I don't think this is a third party browser problem. It's IE not doing what it is suppose to do. The weird thing is that when this happens and IE starts, when the link is clicked in Firefox, IE does not show up as one of the running processes. If IE is started up on it's own it does show up as one of the running processes. -- Caver1 |

It was not just a warning, it was a statement that certain message of yours will be removed from the group. That's not the same as being kicked off the group, but it is certainly tantamount to being partially kicked off. -- Gene E. Bloch (Stumbling Bloch) |

A goof like that can lead to a "bad" website. |
