    I have my profile set so that I don't show as on line even when I am... And I know I am not the only one who does that. Not sure how that shows in the stats...

    its 2.18 am there is only me online - logged in as opposed to lurking I might add - and there are currently 138 users online. 1 members and 137 guests. Uh? that's weird? Who are these users and what do they want? It's a bit freaky. I am off to bed now. Nn

    When I am at work I virtually always have an explorer logged into the forum for quickly being able to jump in and out, see whats going on etc and when I go home I just lock my workstation so I assume that the forum would still see me as being logged in - it is certainly not that I sit on the forum all day.

    I think my solicitor is a forum lurker.
    He talk's regularly about this forum but won't tell me his forum name.
    We just laugh it off, good to have folks with similar beliefs.
    I think he is only a road runner really ��
