1. Why am I receiving email from CH about status changes from discussions we've had years ago? I'm afraid to open the emails I've received today and yesterday.
Nathan (the administrator) moved a whole bunch of topics in the windows forum to make it better organized.
2. Why when I link up to the CH site am I already logged in? I typically use the 'stay logged in' check box option when I'm expecting a reply.
Don't know. I never use the "stay logged in" button but whenever I visit I'm logged in automatically- This is Firefox's doing I believe. IE has a similar feature, too, I think.
3. Yesterday and today; when I clicked my desk top CH icon, I did not have to log in to generate this forum. I did not write yesterday (didn't have the time), I am writing asking for help today.
Same as Above, methinks.
4. Profile info; I want to change my user name and email address. How Do I go about that?
Click the "profile" button on the forum toolbar- (this appears below the "Hey, Username you have etc messages ..." text)
In the right hand box, click "account related settings"- this will allow you to change your E-mail address.
If you want to change your username you can either Message the administrator (Computer Hope Admin) -or hope me notices your thread here, or you can simply create a new account with the desired nickname.
5. I hope I am not over reacting; we've been friends for along time.
I think your being a tad paranoid, really. And I didn't even know we met!
