Title: Login problem
Post by: Deep-Jiffa on March 07, 2005, 09:55:51 pm
Recently I can't stay logged in! I have to login everytime I come to read in this forum. And yes I have checked the option to stay logged in.

Any ideas why?

Does your computer allow cookies?

In other words, have you installed any anti-virus (or maybe pop-up blocker - but i seriously doubt it) firewall thing? I had the same problem for a little while when I had Norton Antivirus 2002.

Yes it allows.

And I have a firewall and an antivirus but it still happens even ifI disable them.

Is your system clock (approximately) correct? If you've got it set a year in the future, your cookies may expire the moment you get them.

It's doing this to me too. I have to login again every time I visit.

It happens to me on the occation... but not enough to annoy me. Just like once every month.

Every time my IP address changes (which has only happened three times since I've had this cable service) I have to log back in as well. I run a YaBB myself, and have noticed this behavior on that board as well.

Are you on dialup, or does your ISP regularly change your IP address on you? If you don't know how to check this, go to http://www.whatismyip.com (http://www.whatismyip.com). If the number it reports is different at different times (e.g. between logins), this might be the source of your problem.
