Scott,
Do you have a deal with Facebook on your site? I notice that recently when I hit the back button in IE, nothing happens. If I hit it again, I go back. I held the left-mouse on the back arrow and I got the following:

Since I only use IE when I'm at work, I don't know if this is a Work thing, or an IE thing. I've never noticed it at home using Safari.

There is a code snippet which may be normal Facebook login stuff or "Like" stuff:
Code:

(I have no idea what this will look like since the editor seems to be going spacey...)

Anyway, my workplace blocks Facebook access, so the backlink to Facebook's site fails. Has anybody else seen this behavior?
 
I don't know about the Facebook part but for some time I have had to hit the back button twice to go back on this forum (does not happen on other forums.) I use Facebook.

wrt facebook - no clue.

wrt back button (IE 9) -- I've been holding left click on back button, then dragging down into desired entry on back-list. But just now, I noticed
a right click on the back button displays the list withoiut having to hold &drag.
