At home on my Windows XP desktop when I hover over the smileys when composing a post I get a little message telling me what the smiley is, i.e.grin,angry etc.
On my laptop using Vista this doesn't happen. I simply get a small blank box.
Is there a setting that switches this facility on?

No, sorry it doesn't.

Been doing a bit of googling. I suspect this problem is caused by a profile setting. I'm using FF 6.0.2 (on Vista) so not sure if this works on FF 3.6 but…
If I open a new tab and type about:config in the address box, press enter and promise to be careful I get a list of preferences. Highlighted ones are those which the user has set.
One of the preferences is browser.chrome.toolbar_tips where I have the default setting, which is true and tool-tips work. Is yours user set and false? If it is, right-click the line and select toggle which should change it to true. There doesn't appear to be an "OK" button at the bottom of the page so I assume either the change takes place immediately, or perhaps next time FF is started. Hopefully tool-tips will then appear.
Fingers crossed
David
