I don't know why - I check the box to "remember me" (I forget the actual wording) and CCleaner is keeping cookies from both discussions.virtualdr.com and virtualdr.com. Every day when I come back to VDR I have to login again but if I make multiple posts during a 12-24 hour time period I can stay logged in.
XP Pro SP3 & IE 8.
I also get the same problem with web-based Yahoo Mail.
Clarify this, please - are you saying it's allowing cookies, or preventing them?Quote:

Sounds as if a setting in some program is dumping cookies on every shutdown.
CCleaner is allowing those cookies. I religiously monitor CCleaner's cookies window to decide which to keep or discard.Quote:

I don't know what is causing this unless I need to keep some advertising cookies. I also have this problem with free Yahoo Mail.
IE8
Internet Options, General tab
Is Delete Browser History checked?
That is unchecked but under Browsing history > Settings the "Disk space to use" is set at 1024 MB. In Browsing history > Settings > Temporary Internet Files and History > Check for newer versions of stored pages I have "Automatically" ticked (other options are 1. Every time I visit the webpage; 2. Every time I start Internet Explorer; and 4. Never).Quote:

I do not have InPrivate set up at all.
Hmm, my InPrivate was set to "Choose content to block or allow" and I didn't even know it! Most of the content providers were things like quantserve.com, googlesyndication, doubleclick, google-analytics.
I disabled it during the install, now that I think about it.
I have remained logged in from Yesterday 06:02 PM until Today 09:40 AM and my computer has Hibernated twice during that time. I'm just trying to see if there is a specific period of time that will log me out. Just to clarify, are these the only cookies that I need to keep in order to stay logged in:
discussions.virtualdr.com
virtualdr.com
Should be.
I use Cookie Jar 1.0.1
http://www.jasons-toolbox.com/?page_id=14
to control my cookies.
I have a few like you that I save.
http://www.jasons-toolbox.com/Articl.../CookieJar.gif
When I open it is shows all the cookies, I select the one I whish to save and Select the Add to Save Button
When I have all I want, then I click File and the Save.
Now all I have to do is hit the select all when in the undecided tab, then hit the Delet button.
I do not use anything else to get rid of the cookies as those programs will remove the saved ones too.
Do a search here in vdr for jasons cookie jar and you will find a lot has been posted over the years.
That looks similar to CCleaner's Cookies window, except Cookie Jar seems a bit more automated. With CCleaner I manually select which cookie to delete or keep.Quote:

This is kind of a trivial problem but it is aggravating nonetheless. :mad:
Yes it is aggravating and why I do not touch cookies with CCleaner anymore.
Hope you get it figured out.
This seems to be a CCleaner/IE 8 compatability issue. Piriform's CCleaner Forum IE8 incompatability topic.
Glad I do not use that part of CCleaner now. That is the pits.
Thanks for sharing!
FWIW, I have never had a single problem with the CCleaner cookie manager until I installed IE 8.
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.Quote:

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.
