The new softare logs me out.
I have had trouble staying logged in since the new software was implemented. Yes, I check the "remember me" box, but every so often I get logged off. It seems to happen randomly.
It most recently happened when I clicked the "back" button after viewing a thread. Also, when I launch the site, there's about a 50/50 chance I'm still logged in from my previous log in.
I'm running Firefox 3.0.5. Anyone else having issues?

i have had the issue intermittently. i havent paid enough attention to narrow it down, but i think its likely it only happens at work on the gov/mil machines. which is no big deal. i'll pay attention tomorrow and see at home

My cookies are fine. This is the only site where I experience the problem (and I'm the only one who watches **** on my computer - I hope).
I have to log in every time I visit the site, and sometimes it'll just log me out when I click on a thread. I can't tell you how annoying the ads on the side of the page area, and I can do without seeing everyone's signatures.
Dang it. I can't be the only one with this problem. I'm going to try to download the newest Firefox again.

Same problem here with latest Firefox on a personal laptop. Sometimes opening thread links in new tabs doesn't carry over the log-in, sometimes it does. I just had several tabs open on different threads and all showed logged-in, refreshing a tab showed logged-out except for the original tab. The PC did go to sleep while the tabs were open so I don't know if that has anything to do with it. I haven't tried deleting site cookies yet.

I still have to log in almost every time I go to my usercp page. I read those new posts then went to "Quick Links/Today's Posts". I usually go through the list and open each of those threads I intend to check in new tabs (Firefox), so I can get a large collection of tabs to read. I had been reading threads for a while and noticed that when I clicked to go to a "page 2" of one that I was now logged out. Going to my UserCP again prompted me to log in again. Apparently if I don't do something to show I am still active on the website, like request a page, it logs me out. I don't know how long the inactivity has to be but I would guess and hour or less. This sucks as many of the threads I read through the "Today's posts" link are going to only be one page, or the last page and don't require a page request to read more. That means I can be on-site reading quite a bit without being active for the required time. I don't know why this was changed with the new software update, but I don't like it. I don't like the login each time I visit and especially don't like the short time limit on activity. Why was this changed?

:( traded in my 8
I had this problem using IE8 (beta) on the Windows 7 beta. I figured out it was the Norton 360 beta clearing out all my cookies, then I got rid of it. Are you using IE8 or Norton 360?

Yeah, this laptop came with N360 on it and I have been planning to uninstall it, just haven't gotten around to it. Right after activating it the 32-bit version of IE failed with a corrupt folder. I had to run the 64-bit version and not everything works with it, like Flash videos (you-tube). Thanks for the info, Ill check the settings to see if anything there will fix it but I am using Firefox and it worked fine until the site update.

I'm pretty sure it is one of my settings, but the weird thing is this is the only site I have problems with and it's only on my work computer.
I'm about to update to Firefox 3.0.7. I'll report back.

I love FF IMO.
No script is great for blocking crap you don't want slowing down your browser or opening ads.
Here's the scripts I'm currently blocking:
internetbrands.com
postrelease.com
jbrlsr.com
quantserve.com
doubleclick.net
Maybe one of these I should not block to keep me logged in?
