I could use some help if anyone is around.

I have had connection problems lately (Thats fixed now) but during this time I tried fixing it myself, 1st mistake. Needless to say I tried changing a lot of settings & one setting that got changed (I don't know how), is ever time I leave DU & then come back it shows everything in blue links as not being read & I need to know what been read & what hasn't.

Can someone please help me?
