A new IE has been sent out recently which could explain the change in behaviour...
I don't use IE and have the same thing.
I'm seeing the issue with both IE (at work) and Firefox (at home), so I'm with FWD on this one!

It seems a bit hit and miss, but I just noticed that when "what's new" gave me what's new since ten seconds ago, hitting "what's new" again then gave me a sensible answer.

Yep, I noticed that too. That's a significant clue. Will get back onto this shortly.

Possibly related - When viewing the Gassing Station, the "new" markers are no longer appearing (for me, anyway).

In the past, this would just be because I wasn't logged in but now I'm definately logged in and viewing my filtered list of fora.

Seems quite consistent over the past couple of days.

I'm also having this issue on both my home PC and my laptop (both running Firefox 1.0).

It seems that whilst the red "new post" markers don't appear on the forum select screen, they do appear in the thread list for the first forum I read. They then seem to disappear again if I go back to the main screen and go into a different forum. Whilst the "last post" times next to the thread titles appear valid, there's no red folder next to the thread title, and no blue bar showing last post read.

Hope that helps!

Edited to add: clearing cookies and the browser cache appears to have no effect on the problem.

Just logged in and it said welcome back groucho, your last visit was 19:39. I didn't log on until 19:37.

Weird.

Remember the time is measured at Pistonheads server not on your PC, I expect the clocks are a couple of minutes adrift.

I'm getting the same problem. My last vist time is the time I have logged on.

Very annoying!

I am struggling to get the "what's new" pop up bar. Anybody else having this problem?

Looks like someone fixed something, as everything looks back to normal for me.

Thanks to whoever that was
