I don't know, but I would try cleaning out my cache, deleting cookies, and deleting your bookmark to whysafter. Then Id open a new browser and go to this site. And set a new bookmark. What do you think?

Like others, I suspect it's likely cookie related--I wonder if you maybe ticked the box once a while back to try it and something remembers this sometimes? I'd certainly try a cookie delete as a first course of action. Bob -------------------- One person suffering a delusion is called psychotic.

Logging out and back in again had me showing up without deleting cookies or anything but I'll watch and, if it becomes a habit, my next step will be the clear things out to see if that helps. -------------------- One person suffering a delusion is called psychotic.
