I probably missed something, but what is the point of this new "Everything else[^]" category voting?

I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

There are articles that not really fit into the existing categories...Let say some more theoretic article...

I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

My windows version comes with a directory in which I can put everything that does not fit elsewhere: it is called "Trash".

Yes, but you wouldn't vote for "Garbage of the month", now would you?

Ever gotten a spam email on your mobile phone and click the remove link but when it opens in the browser your are automatically directed to the mobile site instead of the remove link making it impossible to remove yourself from the spam list via mobile?

There's your problem - never click on any links in a spam message, not even the "stop sending me this rubbish" link. All it does is let the spammer know that your email address is valid, which means they can demand a higher price when they sell it on to other spammers.

Normally I wouldn't but BMW already knows the email is valid because of bill pay.

Depends if it's really spam (i.e. unsolicited from some list sold to spammers), in which case you're right, or if it's some 'extra information newsletter' or something from a reputable company you signed up with, in which case the unsubscribe should work correctly.

I use Internet Explorer for really one reason - it's somewhat compatible with my customer's backend exchange system. So, I find myself on any given day having numerous tabs open. It's a set of working thoughts - you know how this goes. This morning, I had something like 14 tabs open, all various searches, things I wanted to read, things I needed to read, working email..

Windows pushes out an update, and I get a popup "May I reboot?" just as I'm hitting a return in my email. Yup, flushed. Now, here's my bitch. IE only remembers the last window it closed. So, W7 closes down the browser and the last window closed is some meaningless popup.

Coming back to IE, if I want to reopen the last session, I get the meaningless popup. Mad | :mad:

I have searched over the years for extensions and what have you that will automatically remember the tabs in a fashion like Firebird or Opera?

There you go now. You want to use a vintage system and expect it to operate like the latest version. Good luck with that. Unsure | :~

I know, I know. I only use it for compatibility. The funny part is that IE11 is NOT compatible with the Exchange server, so I'm having to use IE10. Not that it would matter...

iE tab looks like it's giving me some hope....

The best extension I found that does that is here: https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/[^]

That has not been my experience with IE. I believe there's an option for it to open the last set of tabs on start of IE. Also, you could use chrome with an iE tab extension. That has worked well for me.

Not really, it works well and gets the job done. Don't be so closed-minded.

Fair enough, no 10-ton rock, then, but a rope with frying pans tied to it. Big Grin | :-D
