Is there a way to turn off the pop up text of the first message that appears every time my cursor passes over a subject line? I don't recall this "feature" when I first logged on...

Hehe... I've had people wanting this so I installed it. There is no way to turn it off unless I completely get rid of it.

It is there in IE, but I don't see it when using Netscape as a browser. Figure you would have know that.

Now, I will say that I like the white box feature, I can save time and determine if I should open a thread.

Now if I can just get my computer guru to fix my security settings so IE will let me log in...

I'm running Firefox at home. IE is just too full of security holes for me... the spyware was killing me. Anyway, in Firefox the boxes pop up in about a 12 point text and cover most of the topics. The flashing may yet drive me mad.

I see my cause is not fairing well in the poll. One man's trash is another man's treasure. :(

I'll get in touch with tech support and have them stop by and fix your machine Monday after work. :)

Problem with this pop-up is that there's no delay at all, so it flashes like mad. Normally these have short delay so moving your mouse over the screen doesn't pop anything, but you need to park the cursor overt the item to pop it up. Maybe there's adjustable delay in the coding?

Yes! Please God let there be a delay...

Delay would be nice... I'll try to make it happen...
