Feedback Cookies? JS? The site keeps forgetting me during a single session.

    For the first time today, I'm getting the login prompt every few posts I read or respond to.

    Yes, I have cookies enabled (I have 10 cookies for .digitalpoint.com). Yes I have Javascript enabled. What am I missing? (I assume it's something I did, or I'd be adding this post to the end of a long thread.) Using FF beta 8.0, with no further updates, but I've been using it here, and on other fora for weeks with no problem.

    Be sure to use the remember me option when signing in. Sign out to clear cookies then sign back in.

    It's nothing we do on our end. Maybe you have software that's killing your cookies? When you get logged out, go look in your Firefox settings... you can view cookies it has for a specific domain. Are the digitalpoint.com ones being killed by something (maybe Norton or something else)?

    I had this problem before. Clicking logout and then logging back in (guessing it cleared cookies) seemed to fix it.

    Two session cookies didn't get cleared on logout. We'll see if it happens again.
