If the owner of the other Gixen account didn't accidentally link your account themselves it seems feasible that such an error could occur on the Gixen side... but only Mario will be able to investigate anything at that level. <br /> <br />I think the only other time I recall an issue like that being reported, it turned out to be caused by a husband and wife sharing computers, hence my initial questions in that regard.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>andrew11</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Mon Jun 17, 2024 9:23 am<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: </span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">Thanks, I've sent him the info. <br /> <br />I don't ever use it on a shared, computer no. <br /> <br />Bit weird indeed!
