I get involved with other things/places/people online while posting here and I'm FOREVER having to log back in!!!! What a pain in the ass!
:sheep:

It seems it is set for like 3 minutes......but probably it's more.

Can you extend that to like an hour please bossman UT?????????

I just set it for always logged in, and never have that problem...
MsSparkie • Aug 17, 2006 10:27 pm
I don't want to do that.
Ibby • Aug 17, 2006 10:34 pm
Why?
MsSparkie • Aug 17, 2006 10:56 pm
My computer is accessible to others.

The problem is not the cellar, it's sputters in the server that you're connected to. I have that happen at work ... the signal drops out and I get logged off, sometimes (annoyingly) in the middle of trying to post.

That's a bitch.

Yeah, but we try to put up with her, being that she's a moderator and all.

Good reason for the login to not be persistant. Also a good reason to secure your browser history and cache. Maybe you should consider Portable Firefox.
