CSM, thank you for suggestion, but already did that also. I wanted to enter a thread here also to alert the rest of the gang that there are possible problems with the new OS coming out in January ( VISTA) which has some really beefed up security. It might be preventing me from seeing the dropdown menus when I hit REPLY, thinking that they are "pop-up" adds or something similar. It is strange though because I can see all the MRR adds and videos just fine.

You may want to try to e-mail Bergie directly. You will probably get a faster response that way.

Good morning Bergie, I am not seeing the drop down menues when I reply to a message, ie, font size selection, color, icons, etc. I feel this "may" be related to the Beta version of VISTA that I am presently testing for Microsoft. I have Beta Version 2, Home Premier Edition of VISTA OS.
So far, everything else seems to be working OK with the new screens. Videos worked OK etc.
