    Why do message board posts here persist on displaying the *new* icon even on subsequent visits? I would have imagined there'd at least be a timestamp in a cookie so it knew when I had visted last. The site remembers my login no problem, surely these message boards couldn't have a new icon without some way to track what was new or not..

        Yes, in fact here's the data from it right now (last line mangled intentionally): LastVisit 1%2F25%2F2003+10%3A53%3A22+PM www.thecodeproject.com/ 1536 226615296 29577624 530184256 XXXXXXXX * The question is, why would it think my last visit qas 1/25/2003, when it is in fact about 5 minutes ago. Note that because I have the cookie, I don't need to manually login - perhaps it is only setting the last visit date when I manually login?
