The icons for threads with more than 15 posts have started flashing on and off at me. It didn't do that before, did it?

And it's incredibly annoying. Am I showing my age?


Edit; I just checked with Firefox, and it's like the normal animated icon, meaning its not flashing on and off.

Any other Mac users getting the same anomaly with Safari?

As long as you don't start flashing back Muzza. That would really get the neighbours talking.

I can just imagine the PC lover's headlines - "FINALLY, A PROBLEM WITH A MAC!"

Macs have plenty of their own problems, they're just not quite as annoying as PC's.

I use both, so I talking from experience.

I'm filing this one away for when I'm older. Sounds like it's cheaper than Viagra. Thanks, cliff! :p

Muzza, I gave up on Safari a long time ago, Firefox is the only browser I run, PC or Mac.

muzza, tell us when the icon starts talking to you.
'Till then, I wouldn't worry.

But yes, use Firefox.

I use Firefox too, but I fired up Safari and I see the same thing.
Thanks for sharing the drugs!

I just spent a half hour trying to get our atomic clock to work. When the batteries go dead, I have to reset everything, even though it's supposed to be automatic. It thinks we're in a different time zone. Of course the manual is in microscopic print so they can fit in 6 different languages. I spent a few minutes trying to read it before I figured out I wasn't in the English section.

Of course. And implied that I was an idiot for not knowing where the manual was. Do you suppose she could get out the manual and fix the clock? No way. I'll have to remind her of that the next time I forget how to load the dishwasher.

I know several couples where both are lawyers. I can't imagine how awful that would be. Now that I think about it, most are divorced after much bloodshed.
