Go to START>ACCESSORIES>SYSTEM TOOLS>SYSTEM RESTORE. You can
take your computers settings back however far you want. I have had some luck using it when I can't figure something out to just go back to the settings from 3-4 days previous. Don't know if this will affect your particular issue but worth a try. I have had my computer decide to do its own thing for no apparent reason and used it. Good luck.

Karl; I had the same problem as you and just got it fixed. First I went to my "User CP" - Edit Options and went to the bottom and put it on "Test 2". Then just above that I clicked on "Enhanced Interface - Full WYSIWYG Editing" and saved changes. I then tried a response and still nothing worked. I then turned off my pop-up controls for this site. Leaving the setting like that, I then deleted my cookies and the files and offline files next to the cookies. I then tried to go back to the "User CP" and it said I wasn't logged in. I logged back in and tried a response and everything worked. You may have to make these changes and then logout and then log back in. Not sure what did it for me, but hopefully if you follow what I did it might help. I was about to go crazy for the last 2 days. :D

This is a Java issue. Update here: http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Java is the programming language that allows those little buttons and things to show up and work in your browser.

Karl; I'm on AOL dial-up and the pop-up control is part of AOL to keep down spam and pop-ups. I had the same trouble as you, but something in what I did fixed it. I wish I could help more. Sorry.
