I suspect that a lot of these issues are cache related..Might I suggestclearing cache & cookies & retrying..

The upgrade requires that you remove your current cookie and get a new one.

Russ... I went and looked at my profile by clicking my username where it shows your PMs and looked at my birthdate...

Can you change it to show DD-MM-YYYY instead of having it MM-DD-YYYY? One of my many bugbears at work.

It should be controlled by the global date settings which are set to M-D-Y but possibly being overridden because we have the yesterday, today option turned on. I'll try changing it and see what happens.

If I've read that right it is displaying as you say firstly. Will wait for your advice.

Trying the forum on my android phone, using Dolphin Browser, if I try log in, it just takes me back to the index without being logged in, even after it redirects you after you log in.

Same applies - you'll need to clear the cache and cookies on the Android phone.

There are instructions for doing so HERE

I've deleted my cookies, temp files, history and passwords from IE9 about three or four times now, and still doesn't show the blue arrows in the FG section (except the problem thread which does). The pub section does show the arrows against more of the threads I have posted in, but not all. Also AFF still doesnt remember my password, it always used to until a couple of days ago, before the upgrade was put on line.

Maybe firefox download time?

Cheers,

Just check that IE is actually saving cookies - the arrows are another issue altogether and as it's old code it probably can go on the less urgent issues to fix list.

On IE9 when you select delete browsing history the very first option is Keep Favourites data. If you have AFF as a favourited website no matter how many cache cleans you do it'll keep all old information.

Couldn't find where that setting is. IE9 Help is useless as well.

I found a setting in Tools/Internet Options/Advanced/ and an instruction "Empty Temp Internet files folder when browser is closed", which was unticked. So theoretically it should be saving the new cookies??
