Default cant stay logged in...

after logging in it shows me the thank you for logging in screen and redirects me to the last page i was looking at. it shows my username in the top right corner, suggesting i am logged in. when i click a link to do anything (view a thread, post a comment, anything that takes me to a new page) i am logged out. to post this topic i had to log in to post new thread, when i click to submit it will make me log in again.

this issue exists on my home laptops running ubuntu linux in both google chrome and firefox. i cant remember what versions but chrome is up to date with the latest linux beta.

it also exits on my work laptop running windows xp pro. using google chrome 4.0, firefox 3.6, and IE 8.

also occurs on my iPhone 3GS.

all browsers are configured to accept all cookies. at home i am not using any virus protection or a firewall. at work, well they have both av and firewall... i have tried clearing my cache and cookies, logging in with remember me checked and unchecked. restarting the browser and the computer...

I had this issue too. I went in and manually deleted all My350z.com cookie files and then relogged in. It seemed to cure the problem. (The key is do it manually. Clearing history and cookies in IE doesn't hit everything.)

Shift_SpecV,

I did as Phreakdout suggested and manually removed the cookies from my work windows computer. Still no change.

I was not able to test this on my ubuntu box or my iphone, since i dont know right off hand where the cokies are stored on the file system. i havent had time to google it.

thanks for your help so far...

Just to make sure, you do click the box that says "automatically log me in" next to where you put your log in info right? I still will pass this to the IB Staff.

You should be receiving the cookies from the site ok.
Your cookies should be saved to the following folder (unless you have made any configuration changes) C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Cookies

(change "USERNAME" to whatever your computer username should be).
Delete all the files in that folder.
Try again

by automatically log me in, do you mean the browsers built in remember passwords feature? if so i have in the past. but during troublshooting on my own i cleared all passwords.

if you are refering to the remember me check box, i have tried logging in with and without the box checked.
