yes working fine. see I told you it was the other button...
To be fair, the button was labeled "This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm." It took a lot of booze to get the IT intern to press it.:p

Anyhow, I have no idea what they actually did. But whatever it is, it worked.

Since you're on a roll, think you could get them to fix whatever it is that makes chrome think there hasn't been a new post in two weeks?

In all likelihood that's a problem with the software package rather than server configuration. So the short answer is no, since the IT staff doesn't like messing with the forums once they're running (which is why we only have a handful of plugins installed).

Actually, I have noticed the same thing for the past week in FF, but it has almost stopped as of this afternoon. Usually just a post or two off, at the most.

So ends a good roll.
