Problems logging in

The last couple of days I’ve been having some problems logging in. I’ve got a shortcut set up that takes me right to the forum page and usually I would log in and away we go. The last couple of days, though, I would log in and the forums would come up but it would have a log in portion at the top of the page and I have to log in again before I can start posting. The really annoying thing about this is that when I log in the first time it comes up and tells me that all of the messages are new since the last time I visited and then when I log in the second time, since it seemed to recognize that I did log in, it thinks that I’ve looked at all the messages and it marks them all as old messages. Has anyone else run into this? Is there any way to fix that, David?

I’ve had the same problem off and on for a couple of months. Here I just thought it was me.

Same here…

Okay…you got me on this one. [:I]

I don’t really have an answer for this (yet). Give me sometime to let this one roll around in my head for awhile.

It’ll be one of those things where the answer will come to mind when I’m out having dinner with the in-laws tomorrow or outside flying kites with the kids. [;)]

BTW… do all of you actually “logout” when you leave? When you come back after logging out, is that when this happens?

I never log out David. What happens with me is I go through the log in procedure, I get a message that says the log in was successful and then it kicks me back imediately to the log in page. Once I log in again it runs smooth except of course it doesn’t show me the cute little icons that represent unread posts.

I never log out either. I generally have my computer running 24/7 on a DSL connection so I don’t have to worry about tying up phone lines or anything. BTW, after having been away for the weekend, I logged in to check out what I had missed over the weekend and I logged in fine. Weird!!!

The last couple of days I’ve tried experimenting a bit and logging out after every session but it doesn’t seem to make a difference. It still asks me to log in twice. But it doesn’t do it every time. Occasionally it will log in normally but most of the time lately it has been messing up.
