Automatic log out?

[Thniper]

Hi everyone!

Just a small question:
Is it normal to get logged out automatically from time to time?:hmm:

Example:
I'm logged in and reading some forum posts for, say, one hour. During this time I get logged out several times (4 times and more) and this seems NOT to be time-dependent. Also I get logged out while answering to other posts (in the editor).
It's pretty annoying always to log in again.:cry:
So, is there a way around for this problem?

Thanks in advance!

No, this is not normal.

Some will tell you, that I'm logged in for most of the day.:) I have never experienced what you describe.

Do you have any background cleaning processes running on your PC? Are your cookies getting wiped?

Although it's probably very unlikely, you could try changing your password first, incase someone (somehow) found out what it is.

@danlisa:
yes, my cookies get cleaned when I close my browser window...but I don't close the browser window when I'm in the forum!:hmm:

@ASWnut101:
but this person then wouldn't be able to log in when I'm already logged in. Or am I wrong?

Thanks for your answers, but I'm still confused!:88)

EDIT: So, now I have changed my pwd, too. Hope it helps me!

Do you ever have a second window open? Is it possible that closing a second window will delete your cookies?

Still, very odd.

Hope you get it sorted.

No chance. Problem still there.:down:

pwd change didn't make a difference.

Yes, sometimes I open a second window (for reading the thread while answering to it), but the problem also exists when I have only one window opened.

Deactivated cookie cleaning for a while, hope this helps.:-?
I will report later...

EDIT: cookie cleaning set to 'off' doesn't work, got logged out two times right now!
Argh! I think I'm gonna despair of this!

I get logged out if I've left the PC for a time. I suppose this is normal? Never been logged out whilst typing a reply though.

+- 60 minutes will get you automaticly logged out.

at least thats hows it is here.
when I leave the computer for about a hour alone and refresh or click a thread I have to logg in again.
