Your use of terms is confusing. "threads" are subjects. A "posting"
- better known as just a "post" are individual messages in a thread.
Your August 8 reply (a posting) in THIS thread said:

Your August 8 reply (a posting) in THIS thread said:

Here we go with the semantics again. A thread is a collected string
of messages. Saying my message was part of a thread is more specific
than just saying it was a posting.
Just to put things straight, I will repeat what I posted on August 8.
My problem concerns losing preferences to particular web
sites like tvguide.com and wunderground.com whenever my
Vista Home Premium system reboots.
I do not erase associated cookies, and certain sites do
seem to retain their data. Vista help function says there
are at least three categories of cookies. Are any of these
erased automatically on reboot? I have not set up any kind
of automatic reseting, as far as I know.

Go to Google. Type in the box: Best Buy/Geek Squad

Jesus H. Christ. How many posts have been posted? You still haven't

If you want to deal with Cookies and retaining data, bring up IE, go to
tools, Internet Options, Delete. Take a look around and see what you
can delete.
Other than that, I think we will be beating a dead horse.

The post you are referring to was on August 8 at 11:05 AM.
If you look at the post of August 9 at 1:48 AM, you will
find my question there.
Besides, if you look at what's included in your posting,
you will find my question there. How much clearer can
I be?
My theory is that certain people on this forum feel uncomfortable
not being able to answer a straight forward question, and are
trying to dodge it by focusing on posting etiquette.

If you are going to give advice, at least be logical. Erasing cookies
is exactly the problem. I need to retain certain cookies for this
problem to be fixed.
Other than that, I think we will be beating a dead horse.
It's not dead, it's tied up in the barn where nobody knows how

Consider learning how to use Message IDs to refer to posts.

I haven't seen anyone so confused as you in quite awhile. Maybe you
should seek professional help before returning to post. I also suggest
getting help from someone with brains so they can teach you the proper
way to post.
Just FYI.

sherwin dubren submitted this idea :
I've got a decent e-mail handler. I use it for e-mail.
I use a *newsreader* for news. In fact, I have two decent (actually
excellent) newsreaders, and the post you keep referring to is not shown
by either. Note that other people don't see it either.
And just for your information, your post doesn't exist here in
Thunderbird's copy of this thread either. I don't list Thunderbird
among the two excellent newsreaders I refer to above, mainly because I
rarely use it, except to refute dodos.
Apparently you have a local copy of that post on your computer, since
you tried to send it from there, but it is not out in cyberspace.
I see that, in another post, you copied what you claim is the missing
post; I also see that you have not provided a message ID for the
putative post. As far as I am concerned, your post does not exist until
you provide that ID.

That would be more likely to be a function of the NNTP server you're
connecting to than the client you're using. Sherwin's posts might be
on the server that he connects to, but not (yet) propagated to others.
Or maybe you're connecting to Microsoft's server, and they've filtered
out Sherwin's post. (They have *very* aggressive spam filters, you
never know what will get snagged in them.)

I was responding to what Sherwin Dubren said...
Yes, I agree that it is possible that MS culled a post of his after it
got propagated to other news servers so that it is still visible on one
or more of them; or maybe it never made it to MS, as I assumed.
However, I don't plan to see if I can find his post on some other
server somewhere that is cloning MS.
For one thing, I'm no longer very interested in this thread.
