WTF? My PM flag is waving and flashing. It says I have one unread message but I can't find it. I even sent myself a test message to see what happens. After I opened it I still showed one unread message. Anybody else having this problem? Am I just a fuckin dumb-ass? Don't answer that.

I'm right there with ya Bro. Going on three weeks. I've tried all I know to do to get rid of it.

Now I'm just using it as an opportunity to brush up on my simple math... Subtract one from what it says.

I kinda like it now, reminds me of the neon signs flashing in some of the hotel rooms I've been in...

Easy fix....

Look and see if there are any inbox and outbox messages you wish to save in a folder and save them and the rest.........

JUST Clean the rest of your inbox messages AND your out box messages by deleting them.

Works EVERY TIME.

You have one that is there - you just overlooked it.

This is the easiest way to do it.

Clean it out completely 100% both the outbox and inbox.

weird... I'll look into it.

In the past, this issue has always cleared up on it's own.

I found the problem with mine!!!!!

It was in a seperate folder I made for keeping track of deadbeats...

I looked in there but didn't look at all the pages....

The very first post in the folder on page two showed unread...

Not only that, but it showed no topic and an impossible creation date...

So your saying that that blinking light cost you a $ 1,000 +/- to fix eh ?

Why did'nt you do what most people do when they get a check engine light on and get some electrical tape to put over the screen ?

Heh - heh
