Michel,
For the last week, the same thing has been happening to me several times (it just happened now). The dashboard contents appear on my first refresh (3 minutes).
No big deal, but it did not do this before...
(IE 5.50.4134)
>>When the Dashboard was first introduced, it appeared complete with names and other features displayed as soon as I logged in to the support/messages area. For the past week or so, it is an empty gray box until the first auto-refresh. Is this by design or can it be changed back?
>
>Nothing was changed. The Dashboard refreshes at startup. If connection is an issue, it might take more time to refresh. It refreshes at the same time as the upper toolbar numbers.
