Post by: Peter Drouin on February 10, 2014, 10:44:07 PM
when I hit reply on a post I get a box to reply in and as soon as I click on it I get an extra box below it. I had a guy PM me and when I reply to the PM the extra box comes back below the reply box and covers the spot I need to click on so I can't send a PM back .the ex box doing this  covers all but the preview and send buttin

I'm sorry, I have almost no idea what you're describing.  Do you have your web browser settings to open a new window every time you click a link?  I keep all my stuff in the same window.  Makes it easier.

Restart your computer, then scan it for malware.  I don't know what you describing either, but if you have had a change in your forestry forum web page, then the change is with your computer.  :-\

Could you possibly have quick reply enabled in your settings?  Have you been playing around in your profile? has someone else? All I can think of.?

under profile/account settings/look and layout/ quick rely settings.

Yup, sounds like Jeff nailed it.  Your computer caught a virus.  Hope grandson gets it all cleaned up for you quickly.

All fixed had a virus with a bunch of folders , so the virus was all over inside the thing, you had to find all the peace and delete all, If you left a small piece of it, it would come back and make a mess  :D The boy is a whizz kid with the Windows7. He goes around the thing like I do a log  :D
He's going to computer school too, and is at the top of his class.
No way I could have done it. :D :D :D
