I sure don't know the technical end of it must be on the server side which is working with log on accounts. I have used three different computers over the years and my read links are still available to me years later using the same log on account. ---- Right--read and unread links that change color are normally a function of your browser but with the boards that cannot be the case or they would appear the same way whether you were logged in or not--and they do NOT. They ONLY are displayed when you are logged in so, of necessity, they must be tied in with your account and logging in. Joan
