Log in

Is there a length of time to browsing on the website before time runs out? I have to log in so many times.

[justbroke]

Me too! I think it's less than 10 minutes or something. It's frustrating. Sometimes, I'm answering so many posts, because I pull them all up with "New Tab" feature in Firefox, that by the time I get to the end, I timed out!

Interesting, I've never had to log in after my initial registering a couple months ago. Could it be difference in browser? Using IE8, accepting cookies.

[justbroke]

I'm using the same browser. Even if I go to IE, it behaves the same. I believe it's the session setting in the software. Perhaps Laz has done this for performance reasons.

[ccsjoe]

I have no clue then, other than I have never had to log in after I registered. Don't know what to say.

It is most likely a security setting in your browser related to cookies that is causing the problem.

HHM, it happens to me too. This is new behavior for me.

It happens on our laptops, but not the desktop machine. Whichever of us was on last, it remembers our login. 'Hub uses Firefox on his laptop and the desktop. I use IE on my laptop. I don't remember the version.

At my work, I also use IE, but don't know the version. Both the machine at work and the desktop at home, are running Windows XP; both laptops are Windows 7 Home Premium.

Hope that helps.

If you check the "remember me" under your log in, you will not have that problem anymore. It was getting on my last nerve to after the updates. Hope this helps.

It doesn't always, at least not with our laptops, which USED to remember those things...

Slightly off topic: I just read that Microsoft is going to send out a massive patch/update package Tuesday, so hold onto your hats...

Yup - same thing here. Get logged out automatically and its very annoying. I use Mozilla, have checked the "remember me" box and still ..it logs me out.

Didnt do this before Laz changed the site format....

I used to have this problem as well. Surprised Mrs. did not remember. Clear your cookies and browser files, (not history unless you wish to). Both Fire Fox and IE use the same locations, but clear them both anyway. That will insure that they are clear. It worked for me. For example, I left bk last night, closed my laptop, opened it this morning and I am on without sign on. It must be machine specific not location specific. 'Hub

I will try that. Thanks.

I do that every night - and also run CCleaner to remove the "ghost" files and cookies. Still doesnt work

Any update/fix here? It's not the end of the world to have log in again, nonethless it's been that way since i registered and is frustrating!
