    - I have noticed that sometimes new threads that I have not visited will show up in a dark navy blue instead of the regular light blue. I normally use Netscape 4.7. ~ Just casually looking at the different threads that have done this, I have not been able to note anything common to them. It doesn’t cause any problems; I was just wonderin’. It sems as though it only started doing this in the last couple months or so. - MC
