  • Why does this site keep logging me out?

    Posted by Alan Lloyd on March 19, 2009 at 9:20 pm

    I signed in today, clicked a few threads into tabs to read in sequence, and by the third or fourth tab, I was already signed out. This has happened recently, and is getting rather irritating. Seemingly at random, I get logged out.

    What’s going on?

    Sounds like a glitch that was happening with an earlier version of Firefox. My guess is you aren’t using the newest version of Firefox but an older version…

    Current Firefox – 3.0.7 according to the info screen.

    I believe it is Firefox. I’ve seen this happen with that browser before and I have no trouble keeping my cookies since I switched to Chrome, partly for this very reason.

    I am on the newest version of Firefox and am in the site all day and I never get logged out.

    Sorry it’s happening to you.

    Can you post your system, OS version, Firefox version, etc., that would help.

    Sorry about that.

    I´m on windows XP pro SP2
    Firefox 3.0.7
    Core 2 quad Q6600 2.4 Ghz – 4GB RAM

    I was in a bit of a hurry when I posted today. I apologyse again.

    I haven´t made any change on my system latelly. It simply started acting like this. Maybe it was some Firefox update I didn´t pay atention to. But I really do not remember making any.

    Thanx for the reply.

    Cheers and congratulations to all you guys. This forum is amazing.

    ninguem.

    * The usual plugins – nothing strange.
