Private message notification
I used to get a pop-up message and/or an email notifying me when I had a new private message. I don't usually notice (or look to) the new messages number next to my login and was hoping there's a more blatant notice available. Did something change on the site's side or is there something I need to enable to get that again?

Re: Private message notification
Your notifications are setup to enable pop-ups and email. Did you switch or update/reconfigure your web browser recently?

I haven't, but I'll check with the mister and see if he's been on my computer lately. Knowing that it's likely on my end helps - I was looking in the wrong area of my control panel to find what you said. Thanks!

Nothing has been changed on our end and I still get the pop-up.
Let me know if you need any help.

Re: Private message notification
I seem to randomly get or not get email notifications for them. I never get the pop up. Most of the time I just notice that I have a new message when I happen to look at the logo.

Re: Private message notification
clever, can you check something for me?
In Firefox, Edit--->Preferences--->Content Tab
Is there a box next to "block pop-up ads/windows" that you can check or uncheck? And is there an "Exceptions" box to the right of that?

Thanks for checking. I'm at a loss on it then.
FWIW, I never get the emails but do get pop-ups.
