Does MarkG need a new watch for his birthday?

[alva]

I'm now using this ultra-special style view from the beginning (anything to help Apolyton )

So arn't you suppossed to get a pop-up every 6 hours?
Well, i'm getting one every time i click on anything.
new thread, different forum, new post, next page,...

I really don't mind one every now and then , but not every 2 seconds

MarkG??? is this normal ??

Or am i doing something wrong here???

[ixnay]

It must be you; I've got an ultra-special style and get one every 6 hours.

[alva]

so what can I do to fix it??

All I can suggest is that you go into your control panel... choose edit options... and the update without changing anything. That works for me

I had the same thing for some time, too. In most cases, what Ming said will help you, if not, that's an issue with cookies in yuor browser.

try closing your browser and re-opening it

Well, if you use Microsoft applications this IS the way to do it...

[Dauphin]

Microsoft products crash your system, making it impossible to shut down properly. On reboot the MS OS system complains that you didn't shut down properly.

I always find that amusing.

I changed me 'style'
but that seems to help

@Ming: I don't really understand what you typed.

Do you mean sort of a refresh, a kind of reboot on ultra-special. I.E. choose the same style??

[Zoid]

Dolphin, yes I think it´s some kind of perverted humour on Bill´s part

[Provost Harrison]

Don't complain, Markos is getting his moneysworth out of you

[Zoid]

Yes, it´s a small price to pay if we keep Markos happy

One of the first questions they ask you when you call those places with a computer problem is whether your computer is plugged in. One of my friends worked at a computer help desk over a summer one year and he told me that fifty percent of problems were simply solved with that question, did you hit the power button, is your monitor/keyboard/mouse hooked into your computer. It is always a good idea to ask those easy questions first and eliminate those before trying to find a harder problem that might not be there.

Reminds me of that call-center joke where they went through a large number of things to see if they could get the computer working, and it ended up that it wouldn't work because there was a black-out.
