Do you mean you press "Back" and it's still orange? Your browser caches the page, so you will need to refresh the page for your browser to see that you have now read it.

Ahhh. It's orange because you responded :) You had viewed the thread when the last post was not you, but you didn't view the thread after your post, so it's still unread.
