SirMetro, my mistake on my last post in this thread...after re-reading your post, my reply was not in line with your post. Sorry about that.

SirMetro,Have you cleared your temporary internet files on your browser?It made a world of difference for me and the site is right back to normal. I'm only mentioning this because I want everyone to try this option first if they're having problems.

Heck...and my huge problem is that I still can't pick the correct Cash 4 Cash 3 numbers...oh well...am still waiting for the brain upgrade.Sir MetroHumor...not always the best solution...but it does make for a good diversion.

Am running 1152 x 864 which helps take in more of the page. On Internet Explorer users can press Control on the keyboard and roll their mouse wheel to change font size, same for Firefox.However pressing Control and holding down the left mouse button opens a new window, same with holding down right mouse button. Still a teensy slow when hitting send on a PM but that is a non-issue. Keep up the good work

If you have something specific that you're trying to post, but having difficulty, maybe just send me a PM with a description of exactly what it is you're trying to do. Or, if you think other members could benefit from the info you can certainly post it here.

MollyG,Yes, you're right sorry for not making things clearer. The /newsite/ designation was only for testing purposes, and no longer exists. The website that existed at /newsite/ is now what you see at www.lotterypost.com. Sorry for any confusion.

I had a similar problem of Done but with errors of page ....finally figured it out. We all need to delete the old and newbie FAVORITES, and start fresh withwww.lotterypost.com.I had both set up under LINKS and the newbie was really messed up. Can't recall what the old one was acting like...I went to bed after changing my favorites. All I know is: after deleting both and re-favoritizing...everything is ok.Just one thing, Todd.

John,Make sure your video is set to at least 800 x 600. Lottery Post does not function very well at a resolution less than that - because of the amount of info that is packed onto each page.To do this, right-click any blank portion of the windows background (desktop), and you should get a popup menu. Select Properties. The click the Settings tab. You will see a slider control labeled Screen resolution . It should be at least 800 x 600, but 1024 x 768 is even better (if you have at least a
