    Re: rhinos?

    That is very strange... it seems your browser has got a little confused, and is using RhinoBull's avatar instead of the little down-arrows.

    If you do a full re-load (ctrl-F5) or clear your cache then the Rhinos should go (except the original a couple of posts above ).

    So that would be "Fx" rather than "FF" then

    Definitely the cache, clear it and you're all set.

    Also, FF is [blank], use Fx over it anyday

    You know, coincidently last knight I had to clear my cache as all of my settings for VBF were lost at once and also had to re-login. I don't remember doing that before.

    Have you changed your password recently? If so our login system gets a bit confused, but deleting all VBF cookies will correct it (they will be re-created automatically).

    I clear all my cookies and offline files every fewdays or week as it help to keep my browsing up to speed. Its faster when it doesnt have to search through 50,000 files each time.

    The whole point of offline files is to make the task of browsing the Internet faster. Referring to a file stored on the local system, is a lot faster than downloading it from the server. Searching through 50,000 indexed files is also a lot faster than downloading them, unless you have a 100Mb downstream connection

    I find clearing my cookies annoying - all those account #'s and passwords and other stuff lost - that's a pain...

    Without going much more off topic, it just "seems" faster when I have them cleared but it could be possible that its just psychological.

    Re: rhinos?

    Guys -

    Let's keep the chit chat to a relative level in this forum. Thanks.

    Also using words like "sh**" is a means of avoiding the censor options and is thus unacceptable for VBForums. Please don't do this.

    Thanks,

    Brad!
