Could your new internet security be constantly clearing your history David? I get this on GR, and similar pop-ups on other sites I use, every time I clear history, cache, cookies etc which I do fairly regularly. That makes sense so I wondered if you have some sort of automatic clearing system set up.

I only get the message occasionally on Genes, certainly not all the time. It does seem as though it is your new security programme doing it

Recently I have been getting a pop-up message about Cookies. Whenever I change pages on Genes, the message comes up asking me to OK the fact that the site has cookies. No matter what I do I can't seem to stop this message coming up. I have tried editing the settings to allow the cookies, but I constantly have to hit the "That's fine" button. I have recently installed Trend Micro Internet security and I wonder if that is the problem. Has me beaten at the moment.
