Cool! Tha FastBack feature really works. :-)

Fastback is useless to forum junkies because links are not marked as read until the page is refreshed. Not being able to quickly discern what you have read is very frustrating, thus its been pref'd back to "off".

NWPD, it isn't harmful either… Why should we turn off such an improvement? :-P

I did not say it was 'harmfull', I said I pref'd it back to 'off' because of the frustration of not being able to readily identify 'read' links.

Is this Fastback-Feature also used for Viewing the Sourcecode?
With Fx 1.0.x he reloads the content, that is quite annoying with slow scripts etc., also the page could have changed with that reload...

If the links are marked as visited the forum-authors could rather easily just mark visited links as read. Just put the last id og timestamp in the url and add a little css. So it might be your forums that are buggy.
