I can't be very specific but some browsers behave differently than others. I think Rudy put me on to this some months ago.

To get full features of E60 I have to use Internet Explorer. My usual browser Firefox and some E60 stuff just does not work.

Don't know if this is relevant to your issue or not.

Are you able to login and get to the main forum page? If so, you might want to try clicking on the "delete all cookies used by this board" link then logging in again.

It sounds like it's either a browser issue or a cookie issue to me...

Tarek,
My main PC is having the same problem you are describing since I have installed XP SP3 last week . I have tried everything to no avail; up to even re-installing XP and Internet Explorer 7). My other PC and laptop have not had this issue since the install. I have taken my PC to a friends computer shop to see what the deal is; I should have it back on Tursday of this week and will let you know asap with a post what the issue was.
