 * I’m new at WP
 * and I can’t seem to figure out why when I post using IE… the person’s name comes
   up on the post and everything looks fine. but when one posts in Mozilla… it ALWAYS
   comes up as anonymous.
 * its very frustrating and I can’t seem to figure it out… I’ve gone to other’s 
   peoples WP pages and its not a problem… also where can one see what version of
   WP they are using… I want to know if I have the newest version… but I can’t find
   that out either… any help would be greately appreciated
 * thanks!

 * youre logged in under ie as david .. logout then come back, and it will look 
   like it does in ff
 * as for the latest version, youre not. youre running 2.0.3.
 * `<meta name="generator" content="WordPress 2.0.3" />`
 * all of the above is asusming that the site listed in your profile is the one 
   youre refering to..

 * okay.. so I need to update to the newer version… thats no problem.. thanks for
   the input… but how do I get it to stop coming up as Anonymous? I want it so that
   when someone puts in their name… it shows up that way ont the site. I dont’ whant
   people to have to be logged in as a certian person to see their posts… whenever
   i open a new window in IE and post some fake stuff… it all seems to come out 
   fine… but in FF its always anon…
 * I know I’m asking you the same question again… but I can’t tell if you’re giving
   me a way to fix it.
 * thanks

   anonymous? is that what youre saying?

 * Well, if you have them site for “originating site only” that seems to be causing
   some problems lately (did for me even on sites I run myself, for instance).
 * So that would be where to look first maybe.

 * still showing up as anon, both in my admin pannel and when i simply visit the
   site… no matter how many posts I do, or different things that I try… when I use
   FF and put in a comment… it doesn’t work… no matter what name I put in the name
   box… i get Anonymous
