I recently purchased a new battery for my laptop - but it never goes beyond
63% or so charged and then stays at that level - as a result it is always
charging.

Is this likely to be harmful to the battery? - and does anyone have any
suggestions as to how to fix this?  

So far the only "cures" I have found have suggested removing the battery and
reinserting it - this I have done several times to no effect.

Also any suggestions on a good techie forum where one can ask questions such
as this without being flamed for opening your mouth?
