Firefox wont keep me logged in....

Post by TheSubaruJunkie »

Anyone else having problems using Firefox? Happens at home (on both PC's) and at work. When I visit, i have to log in. I have firefox set to remember my username and password, so when I visit the login page my info is already filled out. I check the "Remember me" box and continue. If I close firefox and come back, i must log in again. the BBS doesnt remember me.

Nope, problems here. I'm currently using FireFox because some trojan program kept redirecting IE for me. So far it's been decent to use over IE.

I've had that happen before on a different board. I believe it had something to do with your cookie settings.

Cookie settings on all 3 machines? I find that hard to believe. However, I will look into it when I get home.

Did you change any cookie settings to get it to work? I havent messed with any of the installations and the PC in my bedroom. The one in my living room, and the one at work all have the same problem.

it may have been fixed by a newer version of FF

thanks for using firefox by the way :)

1. click tools
2.click options under the drop down menu
3. select the security tab
4. make sure the "remember passwords for sites" box is selected
5. monkey with it

the other thing you could do is press ctrl+Shift+Delete all in sequence
and just clear all your everything then start over.
re-entering stuff sucks, but at least you may not have to do it again.

did you check your computers security settings?
like windows firewall and all that BS?

sometimes (always) windows is known to suck ass and will change randomly with new updates, to enhance security and stuff.

It seems that if I use the quick login feature located at the bottom of the main forum, it fixes everything.
