premex: Of course! I'm guilty of never remembering the options of the right side of the mouse... always making work for myself. FYI - the URL I have bookmarked that takes me directly to the boards is http://www.flyertalk.com/boardsfr.htm . For whatever reason, even when I click on a thread, I never see the entire URL in the address bar: only the one above...

Thanks again for the great tip!
