Forum access using Firefox
I've started using Mozilla Firefox for web browsing, and it seems to be fine.......except when I log in to this forum, and then browse through a section, something logs me out
When I log in, I enter username and password, and tick the 'keep me logged in' box, and then click the login button - but I have to keep doing this, almost everytime I change between topics.
I'm guessing that its the config of Firefox - any suggestions ?
Thanks,
JimJim

Same here too, I've been using FF for ages now with no problems on this site or anywhere else for that matter.
I wonder if you logging off problem has to do with the "Privacy" settings under - Tools - Options - Privacy, on the menu bar at the top, mines set for "Remember history"Clive
I too have been using Firefox for many years - never had any real problems compared with Internet Explorer.
Certainly never a problem with this site.
Current version of Firefox is 3.5.6 & if you are anyone else s using an earlier version I would recommend an upgrade.

I've been using Firefox for years now, as do many others, there definitely isn't an inherent problem with this site under Firefox as I'd be inundated with angry people
I'm running 3.5.6 too so we can rule out a bug in that version.
What addons (extensions) are you using?

Any issues with the site let me know!

Martin - I wasn't blaming the site, more my lack of understanding of FF !!
Anyhow, to answer the questions above:
Version 3.5.6
No addons that I can see (tools, addons - extensions tab, nothing listed)
Cleared cookies - not yet, gonna try that now !
