I dont know if anyone has mentioned this yet. but Opera 7 does funny things with PMs. The icon flashes just fine. but when i click on it, it dosent show i have any New PMs. I have to go to View History and see what one is at teh top to see what PM's i got. Sometimes the show up on teh main screne. but not always also after i read teh PMs they stay as new. and teh icon keps flashing. i have to go and hit "mark all read" for it to stop.

just thought you should know

opera does some serious cacheing to speed up browsing, it caches pages for about 5 minutes then looks to see if there are any updates, so if you have a PM click it, the icon can still flash for a few minutes. I think that would explain whats going on with you.
