Wonder if anyone can help me.

Was running windows XP on my system and never had a problem using any function on this site.
My system crashed and I replaced XP with Windows 7 and Internet Explorer 9.
Now I can log on to the site ok but the icons for Today's Posts and New Posts don't work. When the mouse goes over them the icons change colour but clicking on the icons makes nothing happen. The icon for my profile works but thats about it
I can select any of the options across the top of the page Home/Forums/Classifieds etc. Can get to each individual Forum and see the unread threads highlighted in yellow. But to find the threads I am interested in takes hours.

Anybody come across this before.......any suggestions on how to fix?

I had XP and am using Wind. 7 and I have no problem...so I suspect your browser...Exp 9....Why don't you try downloading Firefox...it is free and has pop up and spam blockers built in...that is what I use and it is great...Good Luck; post back with progress.

You could have continued to use Windows 7, as I do, by clicking on the wording instead of the icons. And of course I learned that from one of our members, but I don't remember who to give the credit for it.

There are 5 tiny icons on the address bar that sits on top of your page. Click on the middle one_the one thats immediately left of the '' refresh page'' icon. That should solve it.
