Default PM System is Not Working

WTF is going on with the PM's now?
I went to PM a member about a purchase and the site will not let me send a PM?

You used to be able to click on a member's handle and it would open up and let you see all their posts if you so chose to do so, or send them an email or a PM.
Do you guys remember that?

Now, when you left click on their handle, all it does it takes you to their page and will not allow you to send a PM. WTF?

I then tried to send the member a PM on his home page and all it did was to post it his home page?

Can we not use PM's anymore or what how we used to?

Now in order to send a PM, I have to use a former PM and put the users name in it
and change the title of the PM.

Does any of this/what I say make any sense?
WTF is going on with the PM's?
It has been doing this now for some time.
At least a couple weeks.

Has the way we send PM's now different, or what?
I don't get it.

HELP!!!!

Well, when I left click your handle it takes me to your home page, the page that other's see when they specifically want to go to your home page on this site.
No left clicky action for me.

Still to no avail for me.
I left click and it takes me to your home page.
That is not where I want to go, or what I want to do.

Your IE cache has you in a loop. Open IE and clear your cache. May want to log your user names and passwords to all the places you go to first. Once you clear your cache they will all be gone in IE.
