Can someone explain what the icons that are moving against severl threads mean please?

The most common one is a bell, apparently ringing.

I've looked everywhere and cannot find an answer to this.

Looks to me like they indicate a "hot thread" (one with a lot of activity).

That's sort of my guess too but they must know why it is there don't you think? These threads do have a lot of responses which usually indicates to me mass confusion and many differing opinions. In which case it is not of much use to the poster. Just my feeling.

Oneofus,

If you have not yet figured this out, write a message to the Admin, by using the "Contact Us" link at the bottom on the page.

They will respond to you in a private message, answering your specific question.

Good luck.
