@*&%$*! postjumping **&$@&%! - HELP!

[TassieKiwi]

For the last few weeks each time I open a thread, it jumps to the last post, even if I have never read the thread before. Very annoying, and I can't see why it's doing this.

Anyone struck this before?

No don't have this problem - perhaps check your settings is all I could suggest.
Regards,
Bob
