Why does FR keep logging me out? (Vanity)

Posted on 05/12/2008 7:27:14 AM PDT by melissa_in_ga

I generally use the convenient setting on my account, which keeps me logged in until I log out. Lately, though, everytime I close my browser I have to log in again. Is this a function of the new FR? Or have my kids messed with something on my computer (likely). Thanks for any help!

Or have my kids messed with something on my computer

Your kids may have very likely taken the decision to remove all evidence of what sites they visited. That might include erasing all "cookies" at the end of each of their sessions on the computer. They will also be erased at the end of your session on the computer.

Open "Tools/Internet Options/Browsing History/ Settings".

That’s not funny. A moose once bit my sister.

Your browser is doing it. Either that or the settings on your anti-spyware software are doing it. What is happening is that your FR cookie is getting deleted.

I agree with some of the others about someone cleaning up their tracks.

Especially if your kids are old enough to be slick.

They can be deleting the history file, deleting the autocomplete of content and passwords, cookies, etc.

One tell-tale sign is if your history is all of a sudden empty. Most kids are thorough enough to re-populate the history with the commonly visited sites. Hitting “control + H” brings up History in Outlook, or you can use the dropdown url bar.

Nope. History in the address bar is as long as my sister’s moose.

You can still delete temporary internet files including cookies without deleting the history.

I think your kids are covering their tracks.

One possibility not mentioned (they keep it secret) is that FR has taken over your computer and this is a subtle way of saying they don’t love you any more.
But it’s more likely someone using your machine and leaving it messed up. That’s why I don’t let anyone touch the keys without me standing close by.
