Getting "Leave this Page?" message: why?

The last few times I have been in a Forum Discussion, a pop-up drops from the top: "Stay on Page" or "Leave" - as if I had clicked something to indicate I wanted to leave. After selecting "Stay" SEVERAL times it goes away and everything seems ok.


Any clarification would sure be appreciated.

It happens when you are in the process of answering a question then go elsewhere to, say, check something out. If that option arises you should only need to click 'stay' once or click 'leave page' to do what research you need. When you are satisfied click on reply and go back to the answer you were on, a message will appear asking you if want to continue with a saved answer. Click on that and you will return to the answer you were working on. Hope this solves your dilemma.
