Thank you - even if I'm no wiser than before 
I'm probably too thick to understand this (not exactly a computer wizz kid me), but the thread in question first appeared in my list of conversations today. It says there are 91 posts in all, 1 is unread, the latest post was made by me 4 weeks ago and the last answer was made 5 hours ago.
Thing is I don't recall ever having made a post in this thread (or even having seen it before!) and no matter how often I click it (which only leads me to the front page) it still appears to be unread
