    Login Question?

    How do I keep logged in after I log in? My isp shuts down and I have to relogin again. I used to login and stay logged in but not anymore.

    It's a pain and waste of time logging in all the time. I have my auto complete turned on but it won't work on this site.

    It's on my pc os. When I type in my forum name and password, it saves it and when I return to the site via bookmark it completes my sign in. I think it's called auto complete? When I first sign in,it asks me if I want to save the information and I can click "yes" to save it for future sign ins. It can be turned off or on. It doesn't work for this site tho.

    Every time I manage to delete my cookies, I get the same problem. In Internet Explorer, this is what I do:
    1) Right click on the IE icon
    2) Select "Properties" on the pop-up menu
    3) Select the "Privacy" tab
    4) Slide the security setting slider down to "Accept all cookies"
    5) Click the "Apply" button
    6) Start IE and go to this site
    7) Login with the "Remember me" box checked
    8) Close IE
    9) Switch back to the IE properties window and put the slider back where it was
    10) Click the "Ok" button

    That takes care of me until the next time I manage to delete my cookies.

    I have no idea how to fix the problem in other browsers, but I suspect the problem is your browser is rejecting the cookie that provides the login information automatically.
    I don't believe in safe queens, only in pre-need replacements.

    I tried the cookies thing and I don't know if it worked as I was logged in already. I logged out and logged in and had to type the first letter of my login name and then a small box appeared and had my login name in it, and I clicked on that and got logged in again. Once I login, I can login for a few hours without having to re enter my name and password until the next day. I'll try it again tomarrow and see if it helps. My slider was set in the middle. Thanks for the suggestion.

    Our pc's are so protected that only hackers can login.

    It seems to have worked thanks for the info.
