»SD>Big Posted January 30, 2007 Report Posted January 30, 2007 ok so, i'm having login problems yet again... both at work and on my home comp (the only 2 places i access the forums from) I cannot seem to stay logged into the forums when i revisit despite the fact that i have remember me option enabled.... now i know for sure its not cookies because my home comp is less then a week old. please help! i'm losing my mindddddd
candygirl Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 your op or browser is deleting the cookies. I have this option that will delete all cookies when i shut down EI and my security prog does the samething.Take a look to see if you have a setting for this. I dont know what op your using so ya. PoLuX got me say this (so ya)
»SD>Big Posted January 31, 2007 Author Report Posted January 31, 2007 i'll check now but i find it hard to believe..... IE7 here at home without a single setting changed save for no anti phishing filter. as well at work its IE6. but i will check nontheless! oh it just popped into my head that it can't be the cooks cause i have automatic login on yahoo mail on both home and work and it works fine! THE PLOT THICKENS!
Samapico Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 I think there was an issue with cookies checking both username AND ip... So if you logged in at another place, all other cookies set from other computers would not be used anymore... or something... call it an 'issue' or a 'feature' ... bleh
PoLiX Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 I had disabled that, but it sometimes will still do it. I'll look into the issue.
Witchie NL Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 Sometimes? It does it all the time to me.. schoolpc <--> homepc.My home pc is online 24/7 so it doesnt delete any temp files.
»Maverick Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 Polix, there are a few settings under "Security and Privacy" settings that might cause this. One setting explicity says this setting makes it impossible to remain logged into more than one computer ("Reset member's log in key upon each log in?") which was also changed and enabled. However, another setting stores the IP in the session (cookie) which also must be making it impossible to keeping logged in at multiple computers ("Match user's IP Address during session validation?") which wasn't changed but is still enabled.
rootbear75 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 firefox has its own "remember" feature, after typing in your password for the first time on a website, it will say:
»Maverick Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Once again you manage to give some totally pointless offtopic information. Mind your own business.
Witchie NL Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Indeed. coz maybe you didnt notice but internet explorer has that function aswell.And this doesnt fix anything nub.
rootbear75 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Posted February 2, 2007 then i give you permission to delete that post as well as this one
»Maverick Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 Polix, there are a few settings under "Security and Privacy" settings that might cause this.I changed the first setting. Let's see if this solves the problem. (Note, you have to relogin another time for the change to take effect.)
