Heys!

Everytme i enter nforce.nl (either the forums or nfo's) i always need to re-login (sometimes twice because the first time doesn't work all the time).

Does anybody know how can i fix it?
It's really annoying.
Oh, and i use firefox.
Thanks!

Maybe you are cleaning your cookies every day / the browser is set to cleanup traces? Check this out, maybe that's the prob. Probably Firefox is set to cleanup traces each exit.

I don't think it is. Firefox is now on the default settings of deleting a cookie only when the cookie decides to be deleted.

Here's a picture -

From the screens, it looks like you got two sessions running. That would explain why it doesnt log you in the first time and why you dont seem to stay logged in either.

Before we dig further into this matter, please do a few simple things:
- Logout using the loggout button at the top left of the screen
- Firefox -> Tools -> Options -> Privacy -> Cookies -> Clean cookies
- Close firefox (all windows)
- Reopen it and login again

If it still doesnt wanna fix itself let me know Smile

I have a similar problem.
I dual boot with XP and Mepis, I spend most of my time in XP but when I reboot into Mepis I have to login again.

Yes, you do. Cause if you login in XP the autologin wont work in the other OS. Same goes if you, for example login in FF then IE. IE will be able to automatically log you in again, but FF wont.

It's a safety mechanism so noone can hijack your cookie and login as you.
