Why does the forum not agree with my firefox usage?

Ok, I'm trying to figure this out. As of the past couple weeks, my browser, or the server, or whatever, is not marking the topics I've read as marked. I use firefox, and am curious if anyone has any suggestions. This is what I've tried so far...

Reading topics more thoroughly (courtesy of wicked...)
Refreshing (courtesy of reminisco)
Moving on (courtesy of ^MsCarolyn^)
Remembering what I've read (which is working, but requires more effort than I'd like to put out)

Does anyone else have any (useful) suggestions as to some setting that I might have fucked up? Is this a server thing?

Serious answers are appreciated. Non-serious answers will be pissed on, and possibly displayed in public to be humiliated.

dunno, neo. I have the same deal going on. roughly once a day, usually when the server gets effed up around 4:30 PM EST or so, all my topics register as read. It's not a huge problem for me because I don't really read topics exhaustively, but I can see how it would get rather annoying for someone who is a more extensive forum crawler than I...like you, for example.

Oh, and I imagine that most ppl on here probably use firefox.
