do you have a shortcut in your browser to the filtered list? In other words in the link in your favorites bar rather than have ing a link to the "filetered" view, you have a link with eplicit filters in it?

HTML Code:
https://support.dataaccess.com/Forums/search.php?do=getnew&exclude=35,36,39,41,42,45,46,47,52,48,38,73,74,75,76,77,80,81,82,83,85;contenttype=vBForum_Post
in which case THAT list matters, not the list in your profile.

If you right click on the "filtered" hyperlink at the top left of the forum, and select copy link, you get your normal current list of filters from the profile, and you can use that to update your shortcut.
