Why don't I stay logged in?

[BethAndHerBrood]

When I log in I always click on "keep me logged in", but if I leave the site, then come back I have to log in again.

WHY????

are you clicking on 'remember me until I log out'?

Hi BethAndHerBrood

Is this still happening to you?

does it do it on other sites too?

I had it doing it for me, all cookies remembered etc... turnd out I had a trojan, works fine since killing that

Yes, still happening.

Flame, other sites????

(For me that translates into "twitter")

So, Beth, sorry for sounding patronising but, when you log in, you get the pop-up window, type in your nickname and password, and then click on the arrows by the "Remember me till I log out" prompt, so that the "No" changes to "Yes"?

Yes, I do that, it doesn't work.

OK, thanks. That's not good - obviously.

Will make sure to mention it to the Techs when they return from their New Year wassailing (or whatever it is Techs do to see the old year out).

I've had this problem for about 18 months. At the time I think Tech said it was something to do with cookies. I don't like having cookies enabled so have just put up with it. Agree it's v. annoying though!

do you allow cookies ?

I turned my cookies right down - and since then I have this, I log in and press yes remember me - then it doesn't.

but I find having the cookies turned down really low keep my pc running much faster...

So will be logging in when I want to rather than letting my pc get slower and slower

I don't understand any form of computer speak, so will see what DH says.

It's not a huge problem really. There are worse things!
