How to get the "Send me an e-mail if someone replies to this message" checkbox to default to checked. It used to be but today has defaulted to unchecked.

The theory is the four checkbox options get persisted; it works for me.
BTW: I would prefer to see them on the "My Settings" page too.

It used to be that way, or it might have been a recent clean-out of my cookie jar. In any case, I did get notified of this one.

The same thing happened to me a week ago and I was 'manually' checking replies. You can imagine how it should have been like... Chris fixed it after I reported that.
And the bad thing is that now, the bug seem to have reinstated itself and it has happened to my account again along with you. I'm now manually clicking on "Send me an email if someone replies to this message" option. 
[ADD] When I clicked edit to add something, the "Send me an email if..." has been enabled.  [/ADD]

Can we change the Visual Basic forum name to VB.Net or "Visual Basic (not VB6)".
I can't believe the number of VB6 question in the last month, and they seem to be new projects AaaaaaHhhhhhh.

and also start a new "Archaeology (VB6, ...)" forum...

|
|
|

But the VB'ers will still post in the VB.NET forum...

What if Visual Basic changed to VB.NET if you held down the Ctrl key while hovering?
|
|

Steps to reproduce
Open a message --> pin it
Click on the message title (as if to close it again) (not on the pin icon)
Unpin the message (the message closes now)
Try and open the message again
---> on the first click the message doesn't open
---> on the second click the message does open but the subject line doesn't have a background
Once this the message has been opened without background (second click) going to another message and back doesn't change anything (the background is still gone)
Happens in IE / FF / chrome and is constant

In the comments on this article: Reading Data from MSI Database[^], some posts are not visible until you expand the last visible post (titled: Need examples). Seems there is an issue in the HTML.

After reading the post below I noticed that when a message has been removed, the subject of the message is still readable in the permalink, the header of IE / chrome / FF and also on the members profile (messages posted).
Perhaps turn that into a non permalink (just a number or so then) since it is possible that the subject contains content not for display.

Tom,
In User Profile - Messages Posted, I see the friendly URL with the content for the specific illustration. However, when it shows as 'Message Automatically Removed', I believe, it has already defaulted to the fid and messageid.

 I think you might misunderstood me (or something weird is going on )
Under the messages posted I see the message subject title (in the one you pointed out I see 'ilove u [^]') so the subject is still readable (and could potentially contain content that shouldn't be displayed, there is a reason the message got removed so ...)
Same for the permalink and the window header.
(I'm using chrome but don't think that matters)

Abusive messages will have their permalink removed from the forums, and I've made a change (upload soon) that will remove their title from the window

I ordered a Code signing certificate through your site last week. I had a bit of an issue, My private key was lost when i installed W7 RC and I need to get a new certificate issued, how do i do that? Comodo told me to ask you. What do I do to get this fixed? They said that your Certificate is the intermediate Authority and I need that to proceed, but I don't see why that is, the new request process should take care of that right?
