I have noticed in the past few weeks/months, that if I spend more than a few minutes on each of the new message areas, all the 'NEW' counters are reset to zero.

Is this a default in the program? If so, could it be reset? I know that I'm missing new stuff because I just take too long fighting the good fight :)

Hi Ron,

This is a setting I can control. Currently, the "Timeout for Cookie"
(this is the time that a user must remain inactive before the unread posts are reset to read)is set for 15 minutes. I will set it for 30 minutes to see how it works for everyone.

Thanks John. That will probably do the trick. Most people won't even notice the difference, but those of us who read a LOT of the messages (and then follow the links, etc) will :)
