Default Continuous log in

Anyone else have to log in continuously? All of a sudden this site and one other require me to log in every time I shut down or go into standby. The other 1/2 dozen I frequent do not.........anyone????

I very rarely have to log in. It usually keeps me signed in, maybe once a week or so I have to log back in.

Make sure you have cookies enabled. Sites use cookies to keep you logged in, so make sure you have cookies enabled in your preffs.

Cookies are enabled. All of the other sites I frequent log me in automatically, I can't understand why this one and one other require me to log in each & every time. Weird, eh?

Mine is the same way.... If I close my browser sometimes it will require it or all of the sudden it will log me out and then give me an error when I log back in.... I know it's a security setting for cookies I just haven't taken the time to figure out which one.... I believe if you go to Tools, Options, Privacy, you'll see the cookie settings and it's typically set on "Until they Expire" but you can also put certain sites into the exceptions field.... that may resolve your issue

Sir_Nasty you are the MAN! Somehow it had reset itself for cookies to be deleted when firefox was shut down. I changed it as you suggested and it did the trick. Why it kept some and not others is beyond me???????!!!!!!!!!!

Thank you, thank you. Guess I need to play with Firefox a bit more so I can better realize all of the options available.
