For some reason IE 6 isn't owrking right on my desktop. These forums never update... I.e. all after I login, until I log out (several days and many, many visits to this site) evey new forlder is blue. But it never turns yellow. So the any folder that is currently blue now, will remain blue the next time I come back to the AT Forums later today or tomorrow, until I log out and back in again.

On my laptop IE 6 works just like IE 5 did, it updates the folder colors. So the folders I've already seen are yellow and only the new ones since my last visit are blue.

I tried resetting my 'Internet Security Level' and clearing a cookies, offline content, etc. But that doesn't help.

Any other ideas?

The folders are blue when there is somebody reading the topic, or do you mean long after the topic has fallen off the first page and the folder is still blue?

Actually, the blue folder is to let you know that there are new posts in that thread/topic.

If I don't log out and then back in folders will stay blue for ever.

I.e. the last post to the thread was in february and the folder is still blue, yet I check this page every day.
