Problem with login
Up until a few days ago I could click on Firefox and be logged into OT (my home page) when it opened. Now I have to log in every time I get on line. I don't know what happened to change this. Is my problem with the forum or Firefox? I can't find anything that seems to have changed. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

Go to Tools, Options and under the Privacy tab, you'll see a Private Data section. Check to see if there is a checkmark in the first option (Always clear my private data when closing Firefox), and if so, either uncheck it or select the Settings button next to it and make sure Cookies is not selected. If it is, whenever you close FireFox, FireFox will flush out your cookies and anything else you have selected.
If the above isn't the issue, then the cookie is likely corrupt. Go to Tools, Options and under the Privacy tab, click on the Show Cookies button. In the search field, copy/paste forums.corvetteforum.com which will only show cookies for that domain. Delete those cookies. Then revisit the Corvette Forum, log in (select Remember Me) and then it should be OK. If not, you may have a 3rd party software blocking/deleting the cookie.
