If he did ask for more information I did not receive the request. I would gladly have supplied it.
Gmail seems to lose a lot of mail. I started getting a bunch of windows popping up last night telling me greasemonkey removed the script without my knowledge or permission. http://prntscr.com/p96w8h That will give the basics...I used the script with no problems, no negative effects and no reason to remove it....I did not give permission for it to be removed from my browser. Yes, it is last years date but minor tweaks would have kept it active and working, now I have to start from scratch. I'm thinking it's time to remove greasemonkey and upgrade to tampermonkey or one of the other alternatives.
