Apparently did not work, though the reply to Shalom only appears once but not in Pings at all.
Correction. The reply to Shalom has now appeared in the Pings and was posted using Google Chrome, so FR must have taken care of it. Hope it holds. FYI just did a complete in depth virus scan and my computer is clean.
Thank you all for your patience. Hopefully what is posted by me is worth your graciousness.
