Being asked to Log In on each Viewing
I seem to be having a problem with this
It shows the Forum but I am not logged in
So I go and log in but is does not remember my last visit so the unread posts feature does not work.
For the last few days every visit has required me to log in
At work we are on Microslop Internet Explorer and nothing new has been done in the last 6 months to the server, settings nor my desk computer.
It has always accepted cookies etc.
At home the same is happening There it is on a Mac runing Safari
Again nothing has been changed in the settings for months / years as I believe if it ain't broke don't fix it!
Is anyone else having this problem?
Or should I just go away and buy some toothpaste?

Yes the remember me is ticked
At least it is not only me that is being picked on
Yes there have also been times when the site will not open and is really slow
And I reiterate that nothing on either system had been changed from settings that had worked for ages.

Ian, I think your pc is clogged with rubbish.Ian Anderson wrote:

Clear out the internet explorer cache, clear the cookies, clear the history, reset internet explorer (Tools, Internet Options, Advanced, Reset) which puts IE7 back to factory settings. You will have to put back any preferred features on IE from the advanced tab.
Then run "adaware", and "spybot" (free downloads) to clear out any malicious software. Then run your updated virus scanner.
Slightly more advanced, get a free download for registry cleaner and run it to tidy up the registry and clear out all unwanted registry entries .
Then disable all unnecessary startup functions so there is virtually nothing running in the background (run msconfig "startup" tab.)
If any or all of the above is beyond your scope, then unfortunately there are no shortcuts (other than reloading XP and starting from scratch with a clean system), so you may consider talking to your local backstreet computer shop to run a health check for you, usually 30-50 quid, but its that or continue suffering.
Even more advanced - one of the reasons pc's get slow is that there is insufficient memory to handle the increasing number of applications that get loaded, intentionallyor unintentionally.
You could try stripping out unwanted programs, games, applications, etc from the control panel (add/remove progs) and or add more memory.
To give you an idea, I had 1gb of memory with my 3mhz processor and am regularly running photoshop, adobe CS2 web designer, word, IE and azeurus (downloading films etc) all at the same time.
The machine is otherwise clean, but those applications were slow. I just added 1gb of memory for an extra 15 quid and the machine is racing again like zebedee with a new spring.
Finally when the pc is running normally you can review your security settings, passwords and needed cookies so IE stays logged on between visits.

I think your going a bit over the top there Ramon lol. It is a known problem with the forum being slow and intermittent either 5 min loading pages or pages loading blank. The slowness is the forum and not anybodies PC so telling people to virus check clean the registry and all that isn't going to help. Clearing cookies/history might help with the auto login tho.

Yes Marki, but in my defense, for me, the V8 forum is never as slow to load as you describe with 5 min delays or blanks, so I have assumed Ian had a clogged PC or his cache is dominating the reloads due to IE settings.
Also, I did qualify my suggestions for 3 levels of advancement, assuming that the prior suggestions had not fixed the problem.
Hope you get it fixed soon Ian.

At home this morning (Good Friday) of course it's good as I'm not at work!
On the Mac no log in required
Perhapsit was just a temporary glitch - see again on Tuesday in the Oriface
