Humbly report, 006.9, in my humble experience products such as Web Whacker that automate downloading of web site info are not ideal for use with SI because they hit all the links, which can cause problems.

For example, if you let Web Whacker loose on your SI "Member Home Page," it will hit all the "Remove Bookmark" links along with all the rest.

I'm sure you get the picture.

Cheers,

I am beta-testing a product that downloads all new posts on bookmarked threads with a single click.

Also has an ignore poster feature.

It saves a lot of time.

Been using it for about a month.

a couple of days ago I discovered under certain circumstances my post would become '()' without the quotes.

No matter what I posted it became (). I had to 'edit' to restore the post to what it was supposed to be.

The next day however, it somehow fixed itself.
