Ever since the site has come back I have had trouble with my back button! It seems to be fine on the IE other than this site....am I the only one?:cry:

Try switching to Firefox. I never liked IE
I can second that recommendation. I've only used IE once on the last 4 computers (2 desktops, 2 laptops)...to get onto the net to download Firefox.

Thunderbird is the Mozilla replacement for Outlook...once you try it, you'll never go back.

I switched to Google Chrome. I can't stand IE and FireFox was really buggy on this machine. Chrome is really clean. None of those idiot virus developers have bother with it yet. Thunderbird is pretty cool.

what version of IE are you using. I tried the Back button and had no problems on IE 8.0. Though, typically I view the forums using right click and Open in New Tab.

Yeah, my teenager knows exactly where my buttons are. :)

The only thing we did with the site was unplug the servers and move them to a different rack, where they have new unique id numbers (called ip addresses). Nothing that should effect your browser.

I also vote to ditch IE. You'll get much better performance from Chrome or Firefox and they're simple to download and install.

I have had no problems with IE8 here. Telling people to switch browsers is really not what I would be recommending personally. Your website should work with ALL the major browsers.... Not trying to restart the "browser flame wars" that inevitably happen in threads like this, just saying. In today's marketplace, any website should work with any of the major browsers available. Yes, I am using Firefox currently..... no I am not a member of the MS Borg..... though they do pay the bills in my house... ;)

thanks everyone for your comments and recommendations on a fix for me. Some days I have the backbutton, and some I don't. Only this site! Sometimes I start with it working, then it stops.

I will look into your ideas, but if I end up with problems I now know who to whine to right? Thanks again!
