Tell us what distribution you're using and what browser. You might want to update your profile for this forum so it shows your distribution, that will help a lot with future questions you might have. Some people won't even respond if you don't have that there. Yes, it will show it in this thread if you go now and modify your user profile, just click on the "user cp" button up top and then "edit profile".
