Cookie problem with this site

[Carth]

Uh...hi. I'm having a really wierd, exasperating problem, and I hope some of you smarter people have an inkling of what's going on.

A few weeks ago, my computer sort of sploded. Thankfully, nothing was harmed, but every since then, I've been having a wierd problem with LF, and LF only, on this computer only. I usually leave myself logged in all the time, but, even when I check the "always stay logged on" button, I'll find myself logged out after a while. Not only that, but I have to relog twice before it'll recognize me. I've cleared my cookies twice. Nothing.

Does anyone have any idea what's going on? Want more details? :<

Barely any detail.

What OS? What browser?

I knew I wasn't telling enough. Ok...Windows XP, and IE. Yes, I know that's a terrible combination. I wonder if I'm still logged on in Firefox...*goes to check*

The same thing has been happening to me, on every browser I've been using. That's Opera, Firefox and Google Chrome. Don't ask me why I have three. Unless it logs me in automatically, I have to log in to the site twice.

Well it's usually client side, so meaning its a problem with the configurations of your browsers rather than the site itself. I'm logged in fine and have been logging in fine for the past 2 or something tears now.

I used to have a problem where as soon as I clicked one of the orange "first unread post" arrows, it would forget the status of the other threads. That's mysteriously cleared up in the last few weeks.

I'd also been logging in just fine, up until my computer went nuts. Considering that event, I thought it might have something to do with that. I'm using Firefox at the moment, and so far it hasn't logged me out, touch wood. Maybe you're right, and it has something to do with the browsers.

On an entirely other note, in a macabre way, I'm kind of happy my misery has company. 8D *hugs 422*

*is hugged* I'm glad I can be of solace to you, I suppose. =D

I've been having this problem since the server/host switch that happened a few months ago, or whenever it was. I very rarely use Firefox, so perhaps I don't have the problem there. I'd go check but... meh. Too lazy, as always.

I've also experienced troubles logging into LF on my own laptop (Mac OSX 10.5.5, and Safari) and here at school (Windows XP SP2, and IE 7 and more often than not, Opera on a U3 flash drive).

It may have to do withyour browser settings. Sometimes, the filter settings can be very arrogant based on what you set it to. For example, on my phone, every time I want to go to voicemail, it prompts me three times for my passkey until it lets me on, even if it is the same thing each of those three times.

Add lyokofreak.net to your trusted sites. Then set the trusted sites bar all the way to the bottom.

Check to see what the cookie settings are. Is it deleting them when you exit?

Firefox kinda sucks. I only use it because IE crashes on my extremely slow computer. On the other hand, FF3 uses 90-110 MB of 256 MB RAM.
