  • Some websites (such as Facebook) allow you to log out of a site from their main website. If this isn't possible for all of what you're logged into, then change your passwords. This should boot each account off as there's a change in details.

    As already noted above, unplugging the TV from the mains and the internet will automatically log out the user. Any apps would then require the user's password.

    Regardless, the thread was seemingly concluded a week ago.

    I don't get logged out of apps if I turn the TV off at the mains.

    Same with my laptop. Hotmail stays logged in and MSE stays logged in even if I log out (of the PC) and turn it all off.

    Same with the phone. Facebook stays logged in all the time even after the phone is turned off.

    My printer also does the same and is always connected to the cloud drive even after power cycling the printer.

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    I've already said the seller should simply change the passwords, but I stand by my remarks about the purchase being nothing sinister.

    You need to simply delete the cookies on your computer if you stay logged in all the time, by the way.

    I'd wager that the buyer has the same TV and needs the OP's for a cheap component swap
