FF - When update Extension - Lose marked / read Threads

In the realm of world problems, this falls to the bottom of the list .. but is annoying. Log in to wBBS, go through all the threads, they are properly "un-highlighted ". If I click on "check for updates" Icon, IF it finds one, I install it, I close/open FF .... ALL of the post I had previously viewed are now marked as "Unread ". Feature / program bug / issues with my profile/settings/installed program? This is not new to version 1.0.6, has occurred on previously versions.

 

Dennis,
I get a unhighlighted response every time that Windows BBS does not remember my signon, although I had not existed. If I see the welcome Westside everything is cool. Otherwise, in spite of the fact that I had checked to remember me, it does not. If cookies are deleted other newsgroups wiill show the username, and the encrypted password. So, all I have to do is to click enter. But BBs does not have a clue who I am. But not always. And, it is at its worst with Moz1.7.11, but I was in business with Seamonkey.
It is safer this way, but certainly a nuisance, but there is no way that I will forget my username/password.

 

Never had a login problem with wBBS. It always auto-logs me in .. on my XP or when I come through with w98. I don't believe this is a login or a wBBS issues. It only happens when I install an extension during a active session with wBBS. The install is clearing some kind of a pointer in session cookies would be my guess.
