double click

deadducks · #1 (**permalink**) 09-07-2009, 10:11 PM

Why do I have to double click to get out of each thread I look at? I did not used to have to do this. It only happens on JHO.

Please help.

I think it's a browser setting. I have to do that one another board I visit, but not JHO. I cleared it there by clearing all the cookies (but then I had to sign back in later). Trying clearing all the cookies set by JHO.

Try downloading the Firefox browser. There are so many issues with Internet Explorer browser and the browsers that your Internet Provider gives you for free that we cannot control.

Firefox Browser | Free ways to customize your Internet

Microsoft XP is your OS (Operating System), the software that runs your computer. The browser is another software that lets you surf the Internet.
