    The mouse over thread box is very handy, it lets you read the first post in the thread without clicking on it so you know whether you want to click on it or not. However it only lasts 5 seconds and then it disappears, I don't see why it has to disappear at all, you end up mousing over again and again because you can't read it all in 5 seconds. I really can't see any reason for the disappearance, disappearance upon mouse out would be so much better, thanks for listening.

    It lasts a lot longer for me. And I've those make-box-larger firefox extension things.

    Might be the browser?

    Nothing you can do about it. Your browser decides how long it stays open for.

    deja vu - didn't this come up recently?

    The answer is to move the mouse slowly over the link without going off it, the tooltip then stays visible.

    Likewise.

    As Stevec said, just move your mouse really slowly over it without moving it off it.
