My bold and other formating icons don't work when I write a thread

When I click on the "B" button it just to show me the top on the window. Also when I click on the [Thanks] button it just does the same.

I have already rebooted my computer many times and don't know what else to do?????


Can you help?

    I'm going to suggest you read MY post "This may effect everyone, who knows" a bit lower down. It seems users preferences may have been affected by recent changes. Mine were all trashed, but now theyore back.
