This is from the FAQs, and indeed I somehow unflagged my flags, having nothing to do with switching computers. I did have one of my typical freeze/reboots, but that has happened many times without my flags getting lost. I also cleared cookies through Internet Options earlier, but thought I had done that too without losing flags. Clearing "accidental" cookies is routine maintenance so I hope that doesn't happen every time. Anyway I want to try the below, but don't know where it is:
" This site flags for you with the messages that have been posted since the last time you visited (from that computer) (if your browser does Javascript and "cookies"). This way, you don't have to scrutinize the listing as closely to tell what's new. If you reload the main page and reset the "new" indicators by mistake, you can undo that by clicking the "previous indicators" button. "
