Okay, so I open the forum list, click to open ATMB, then copy/paste threads from that list to a new window to read them in order. When done with new posts in ATMB, I hit the back button to go to the main forum list, pick Cecil’s Columns, and repeat.

The way the ad servers are now working, when I hit the back button nothing visible happens. If I pull down the expanded list, there are 3 ad server links. So when I hit the back button, it goes from the forum list to the previous ad server. I have to now scroll back through the back list to get to the main page.

Grrrrr. I want to hit my back button and have it actually go back, not have to hit 3 times or scroll back.  
:mad:

Some web browsers seem to have this problem while others don’t. Which one are you using?
