Not staying logged in?

[Kasey]

OK, I have only had this problem for the last two days or so. I always have used the "remember me" function, and have always stayed logged in here unless I had to clear my cookies or something like that.

The last two days, I have had to log in each time I come back to the forum, even though I have used "remember me" the last time I logged in.

I'm using Firefox, but downloaded Google Chrome yesterday (haven't used it for here though, was just trying it out)

Any ideas?

Re: Google Chrome: Make sure to update your virus software and scan that download file before you use it. I was researching computer security threats this weekend and I read two or three reports about bogus Google Chrome downloads containing malware.

I had a problem with Firefox staying logged in once. I think I unchecked the "remember me' box then cleared most of the personal data, cookies, cache, etc. Next step was to reboot the pc then login to FSU with the remember me box checked. I'm not 100% sure that is what fixed it but it can't hurt to try.

Thanks, both of ya!

Im sorry I have no idea. Did you sort anything Kasey? :lol:

"Remember me" always worked for me until a few months ago (Firefox on Mac). I'd stay logged in through closing down Firefox, even restarting my computer. Now, even the sleep function in the same browser session logs me out.

Kasey - Do you by any chance have "Never remember history" set in Tools/Options/Privacy in the Firefox menu?

I'll check that thing in the menu Integrity. I think I figured it out. I had downloaded Google Chrome, and had been going back and forth between the browsers, to see which one I like better. In the Chrome, I stay logged in; in the Firefox, I get tossed out. Strange. But that has to be it.
