Staying logged in to MSE

Stantheman

Hi can anyone tell me why if I log in to MSE it logs me out after a few minutes. Its most annoying as I have to log in everytime I want to post.

I have 2 machines (1 XP and 1 Vista) and it is the same on both but my work pc always stays logged in. Any help appreciated.

Assuming you've got the "stay logged in" box ticked, have you got any security software that is set to clear your cookies*, and is the time/date on your machines right?


*I vaguely remember some software will clear the cookies on a regular basis.

Your cookies probably get deleted each time too often, go into your internet option and find the privacy tab or something similar, and set it so cookies remain for a month or something like that.

Make sure you tick the button that says "stay logged in" (or something similar) when logging into the forums too.

Thanx Guys, I have messed about with the security settings to allow MSE full access type thing. Hopefully it will work.
