OK,

I've changed a few things - the search engine will return 500 hits now and the minimum word length for searching is two letters (I have to rebuild the search index so it might not work yet).

I've also changed the "Forum/Thread Read Marking Type" to database type, from cookie type. This should be more accurate although you must actually look at a particular forum for the threads there to have been read. After 30 days of no activity they are marked as read. For instance, if you never look at the Transaxle forum those threads will be new to you, until 30 days have passed and they'll be marked as read. We can try this method, I'm not sure I like it.

Keep ideas coming!
