Hello, Why once I have read a thread and hit the back button does the web page return to the top? This only happens on the Computing.Net site and it's a pain because I then have to scroll down again to keep searching for the next thread. or am I doing something wrong? Thankyou Jon

Several changes involving the back button have occurred on this site rather recently. The one you posted, and also-- if you use search and open a found thread, and then use the back button to get to the list of threads found, you'll get a "page expired" notice.

This never happened to me until I recently installed Norton Security. In order to stop it, I have to turn that off if I'm doing a session here. Fortunately it leaves the virusscan on. Turning off individual programs of Norton doesn't help. Have to turn all off. Not very satisfactory and I hope Norton comes out with a patch.

I've had Norton Security installed for ages and this problem is only here at Computing.Net! and that's what I cannot understand. If it was every site then that would be a different problem.

I meant that it only happens on computing.net. Not elsewhere. Have no idea. I did a search on this forum for the problem and found dozens of answers, none of which worked. You might want to look yourself. Also did a google search for page expired. Relatively worthless because it finds every website that uses page expired. If Norton had decent knowledge base and less expensive and decent tech support, I'd ask them, but they won't know anyway.

Thanks Salgolf it's certainly not an easy one

Justin Weber posted a "work around" 3-4 weeks ago, but I can't find it. BTW, I don't use Norton, so don't think Norton really figures into it.
