Maybe it's something that I'm doing wrong, but I can't seem to get the site to remember my login name and password like I did before the conversion from "suzuki-bikes". Any ideas? Thanks!

No problem for me.

Scott...I had the same problem, also would get booted for inactivity. I checked the little box that says "Remember me when I sign in." (or whatever it says) Next time you log in. I haven't had a problem since.

I've been doing that (checking the box) ... still isn't remembering me. Could it be a setting in my browser maybe??

+1. Clear the cookies and temporary internet files.

Are you using IE or firefox?

Zuki Dude · 02-24-2006, 08:59 AM

Using Firefox ... it has to be something on my end since other sites are not remembering either. Ideas?

I always clear all my cookies with an ice cold glass of milk!!

**Louis** · 02-24-2006, 10:39 AM

Chocolate chips? Or Oreo?

Ice cold milk and an Oreo cookie. They forever go together in a classic combination...

Yes, I did that after it was first recommended here. Still no change; I have to login each time I start my browser. The session will stay while the browser is open, but once it is closed and restarted I must login in again.

**Louis** · 02-24-2006, 01:45 PM

On all your sites? I'm starting to suspect a user problem

Well then, don't close the browser! Problem solved!

Firefox has become more and more unstable for me lately, so I've switched to Opera. I use that whenever I can and only switch to one of the others (FF or IE) when I have to.

Another thing you can check, make sure that you don't have your cookies set to clear after you close firefox.

This sounds like the most logical solution, imho

It has to be a security/privacy option that is set too high on your browser. I use IE and it has security/privacy in "Internet Optuions" that will make it do exactly that.
I will prevent sites from downloading activeX and will prevent saving cookies (oreos or otherwise)
