Strange little exploding hand thing.

No - you can turn it on or off if you right click on it. Or, choose something even sillier. Think I know what you will do......

Sounds like a pop-up blocker icon.

Ariadne

It's never happened before and I haven't fiddled with anything, honestly!

Also it doesn't happen on all links, therefore that proves that it isn't something that I've fiddled with!

Right click on what, Ariadne?

Indeed!

The exploding hand thingy, of course! Do try to keep up.

It can't be done! I think you're on another planet, Ariadne!

I agree with Ana well, at least with regard to the "it can't be done" comment

(Still say it's nothing I've done, mumble mumble, I don't know, people thinking you've fiddled, mutter mutter, technology ganging up on me, mumble mutter........................)

Been getting them for ages phoenix very annoying when trying to access links e.g. Soop's photos, Bag's erudite articles etc etc. Sometimes if I scroll back and click on Soop's name I get access to her details and, therefore, her photos.
Wondering whether it's anything to do with the 'security levels' on this 'puter?
I'll join you in muttering.....

P.S. Can't do the same with Galen tho...... what's going on?
muttering again......

Is Galen in blue or black?

Ana maybe the rain is making my brain soggy! Have to get laptop out soon, so I will check properly, rather than dodging what's left of my memory!

Galen is blue Phoenix

So it should work OGM
