Previously read post highlighting - just me?

For years (literally :() the front page of the Active PICAXE Forum has faithfully reflected that I have read the latest in each thread (by using normal fonts) or that there have been new postings in a thread that I've not yet read (by using bold font).

For the last two weeks or so it's been intermittent - posts I've read in their latest state are still bold, so I open them and it's the same old stuff at the bottom that I've previously seen...

I've often had this.

But, honestly, I have persuaded myself that life is too short to worry about it :)
If it starts affecting my love life then I'll take more notice.

This can be caused by the change from BST to GMT (ie when the clocks go back). It will fix itself when your cookies automatically expire after a few weeks but manually clearing all cookies and then re-logging back in will normally fix it.

The problem is that for that hour there are post times that are before the actual time it is now (as the clock went back 1 hour) and that gets the system a little bit confused!
