I have recently found that whilst writing a post the page will refresh without any action on my part and I lose everything that I have put into my post. This has led me to adopt a rather convoluted procedure of now always writing my post in a Word document and then cutting and pasting it into the IC post preparation window where I then add any pictures to the post. I have had a few private emails indicating that it has happened to other IC posters as well. I don't know whether this has started happening due to a change brought about by an automatic Windows update during the last week or two or whether you have made some minor change to your web site setup. Do you have any explanation or tips on how to correct this problem?

We will turn this "improvement" off.

It does however sound as though it may be the solution.

The result is the post is lost . Another recent problem is that the page freezes when trying to access a thread in the Forum. I don't recall the exact words but one could wait till the cows come home before the connection is completed. I have found that the only solution is to quit IC and start over again. It is only with IC because at times I will have many sites connected and the problem only occurs with IC. I tried reporting it once with connection to Robin. I ended up with been connected to another website - John Maudlin . Thank you Paddy  colin_twiggs Member Username: colin_twiggs Post Number: 3266 Registered: 09-2002 Rating: N/A Votes: 0 Thursday, November 13, 2008 - 03:32 pm:     The refresh has been removed, so you should not experience further lost postings. The freeze may be attributable to the newsletter mailings. The size of the mailing list could be slowing down other functions. We are moving this to a separate mail server.
