 Hey,[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Sorry for the late response.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Ok, I have no idea why you can't see this issue, but in my case, this
 problem has been...[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 - Tested in Italy, Canada, Greece and China with different ISP when I was
 traveling around;[[BR]]
 - Tested on different OS: windows XP 32bit & windows Vista 64bit;[[BR]]
 - Tested on different PC;[[BR]]
 - Tested on different browsers: IE6 & 7, Firefox 2 & 3.0.4, and Safari
 3.2;[[BR]]
 - Tested on 2 wordpress installations: both are 2.6.5 with 10-12
 categories (English blogs, UTF-8, no sub-categories);[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 '''Problem is STILL THERE.'''[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Did you tested this issue on different systems and on different WP
 installations? I'll try to make the steps more clear:
 [[BR]]
 [[BR]]

    '''1)''' wp-admin -> Manage[[BR]]
    '''2)''' click on a title to edit a post which has been posted in let's
 say Category-A and Category-B (pls make sure that your blog has at least
 some categories)[[BR]]
    '''3)''' after loaded the page, verify that only 'Category-A' and
 'Category-B' are ticked/selected in the 'Categories' area underneath the
 'Tags' box[[BR]]
    '''4)''' now press 'back' button of browser to return to the previous
 page[[BR]]
    '''5)''' then press 'forward' button to go back to the edit page[[BR]]
    '''6)''' repeat 3) and 5) for 2-3 times, when you are on the edit page,
 look at the 'Categories' area and you will see differenct/unwanted
 categories are ticked.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 You can also test this on the 'Write' page when you post a new entry: When
 'Write' page has been loaded, '''tick/select a category,''' and do 'back'
 and 'forward's. Later you will see that different categories are
 selected.[[BR]][[BR]]

 Thanks & wish I have explained clearly.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]
 Please feel free to let me know if I can be of further help.[[BR]]
 [[BR]]

 Kind regards,[[BR]]
