Can't stay logged in at Virtual Dr

I have seen some pretty wierd things also the last few days.

On 2 sites im on im logged in fine and when i click another link,I AM LOGGED OUT!! (Happend on 2 different VBB sites)

I was trying to think what might cause this....

I came up with a possible reason: If someone else logs in with "your" account while your logged in,then click LOGOUT wouldnt that also log "YOU" out also??

I was gonna try opening another browser and try it myself and see if i get dropped on the first browser.....


Hasnt happend for along time but the last week or so its happend 2 times...

Strange......

That scenario seems unlikely, unless the other person was spoofing your IP address. If that is not the case then your account may have been hijacked or the site as well. Try changing your password just to be safe.

Which browser are you using? If it's Internet Explorer, is it v8? Are you using a cookie manager? If you're using CCleaner, do you have v2.18.873?

That wouldn't log you out in any case. When you are logged out your cookies are cleared, and nobody logging out from some other computer would cause your cookies to be cleared.

Ya i wouldnt think so.....

Dude111,

Have you scanned your system with Malwarebytes or SUPERAntiSpyware to see if any baddies are living it up? Depending on how bad this bothers you it might be worth posting an HijackThis log. Also, you never answered: are you using CCleaner v2.18.873 or IE 8?

IE7 and IE8 are crap,i have IE6 (With MyIE2 in front :))

It hasnt happend since i mentioned when it happend above since...... (I dunno)

Actually Maxthon 1 (MyIE2) & 2 works very well with the Beta versions of IE 8. I haven't yet tried it with the full release, but some others have been having problems so I haven't made the jump.

Ya i dont like the look of ANY OF THE "MAXTHON" VERSIONS..... I use the last release of MyIE2 (9.27.68) -- Thats my favourite :)

Fyi, Piriform has released v2.19.900 of CCleaner which they say:

- Added support for Firefox 3.5 beta.
- Fixed IE8 cookies deletion after reboot.

I just installed this so we'll see how things go over the next couple days.

CCleaner's update appears to be working. I am still logged in here 3 days after updating it.
