Actually, looking at your last couple of posts, it would appear that you're going through a proxy server which is hopping between different IP addresses, so the forum can't keep track of you!
I will monitor your posts and see how many IPs you are using and see if I can sort a workaround for you 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti

This post is from home. So should be a stable IP address. I will keep posting from work to try and help you out. I can't believe I have to tear myself away from my busy coffee drinking schedule to help the forum IT dept . Good job I'm not on piece rate for work.
See the MOD has spent some money on the new system. As a side comment, I may also frequent Innovate4x4 and Devon 4x4 whilst drinking coffee at my desk and I have no problems logging in automatically when I visit the sites HONI SOIT QUI MAL Y PENSE

Hi, Martin (and others).
I have (and always have had) a fixed IP address, but recently (= last 2 weeks) my "keep me logged in" status drops out.
It is usually whilst I am not active on the forum; today it logged me out half way through writing a post - when I logged back in all my pearls of wisdom had vanished!!
Is that a forum problem, or something at my end?

Hi Andrew,
There have been no forum changes, so as you say in your other thread it either points to a browser (Safari 5) issue or it may just be related to forum cookies. Have you tried anything with deleting cookies?

Deleting cookies? I've got too sweet a tooth for that!!!
But seriously, the answer is NO; I have never deleted a cookie except as part of some software driven clearout. Is it possible to identify a cookie as relevant to a particular website / page? can one delete cookies singly? And in fact - where the heck ARE the cookies on a Mac?? To a PC-literate oldie who cut his teeth on MSDOS 3 and Windows 3.1.x, the location of important files on a Mac is very obscure...
But I will look, search, swear a bit and find some. failing that I will commit mass cookie slaughter and see the effect
Thanks

Hi Mark,
Drop me an e-mail - to martin@disco3.co.uk - when you are at home, there are a few things to try to get this working for you.

Hi Martin
This is from my PC.
I've just got a new MacPro and try as I might, I can't login to the site. I am using Firefox
and the Mac OSX Lion 10.7.4
I just get a message word telling me that user name is inactive/incorrect or the password is invalid. Curiously enough, there is no "Options" in the Firefox system to access the Cookies.
In addition, I get a message saying" Additional Plug-ins are required to dispaly all the media on this page.
When I click the button "Install Missing Plug-Ins" i get the message " No suitable plugins were found"
Any suggestions?
Regards

Hi Bill,
The only plugin the site would ask for is the Flash plugin when displaying certain sponsor banners.
The login issue is a cookies problem, I did create a tool to clear this but I now have to find it... leave it with me 06 D3 SE / 15 LR D90 XS SW / 88 LR 90 Td5 / 68 BMW 2000 ti
