I can't seem to say anything in the shoutbox. Not that I ever say anything of value in it anyway, but still, it helps pass the time. Is it just me? Please help fix this, I need to get Colins b-b-b-bye, Sharona comment off, cos that songs stuck in my head now. Which is actually what I was going to post in the shoutbox

Hey, we say things like that because they are valid things to say.

Barry mentioned he deleted some cookies and things, so my guess is he may have done something while doing this to cause the problem. Logging out and logging back in resets VR's cookie, and could be a fix for the issue.

I know, I know, I was just amused. Because the IT guys at my work can only ever suggest rebooting, and when I do it myself without them turning up to suggest it, people go "...are you...one of them?!".

Yeah, to be honest we get a lot of milage out of this in work..

If someone in our office says something isn't working we put on a patronising voice and rhyme off the usual test fixes we go through over the phone: 'Have you tried a new user? Have you rebooted? Have you repaired permissions. Have you tried a new location' etc, etc.

I cleared my browsing history a couple days ago, too. I`ve tried posting on both IE and Safari so it`sdefinitely not browser related. Strange.

They only released 2 studio albums and I've only heard 1 but as several people on here will tell you, it's a contender for the greatest album ever recorded. You know, if you're into that kind of thang.

You'd get a spam alert if it were.

Plus, the time it takes for a mac to shut down and reboot into Windows would have been time enough to allow for the anti spam timer to cycle a couple of times..

Emailed Jimaitken earlier - not heard anything yet. Probably wont till tomorrow now.
