NZFF

On all the various Sites that I am a member of, I never log-out, so that each time I enter a Forum, I appear automatically...

..but lately, a month or two, although my preference is to be logged in automatically with each visit to the NZ Forum, (name, password, etc, remembered), if I swap sites for a while, or go shopping, feed the cat, have a snooze, etc, when I return I have to log-in all over again with my name and password!
It seems to "time out"!
It only happens with the NZ Forum.

Has something recently been changed in the Forum Program...or don't you lot trust me?...... ... ...!

Paul... ...!

Sounds like a cookie problem Paul, possibly a corrupt one which is causing the problem.

Ta John.... ...!

Deleted the nzff.org Cookie and re-booted, and re-loaded the Forum up again..

..see how it goes!...may be the reason.... ...!

Paul...I love Chocolate Cookies!... ...!

There's a Major War afoot, on the Interwebby thing.
The host of a website I run reported a massive Distributed Denial of Service Attack.
So did AVSIM - in fact my access there slowed to a crawl, then... died.
I had to go through the registration process all over again.
One of the ISP's (Xtra) won't let me send email to more than 10 recipients (there goes the Neighbourhood Watch)

Some of the symptoms we see are the result of defensive software, trying to ward off the Evil Onslaught.
It hasn't stopped yet, but it looks as if we may survive this round better than the last time, which took out major commercial sites

Hey Paul. Nope, no changes on the forum. Let us know if the cookie thing doesn't resolve it tho

Something has been awry across the board , at the SOH they lost my IP , was online with another chatting - got cutoff, fortunate Paul "Naki" did a posting at the outhouse and admin emailed me for the IP and away we went, that strange incident happen Sunday 3 weeks back, across other forums similar singular things have been happening to others.

Hello Chums... ...!

I worked on John's suggestion; deleted the nzff.org Cookie, then opened the Forum again and renewed the nzff.org Cookie again...

All seems to be working OK so far, and I appear to be permanently logged in, (as preferred!).

If anything changes again I'll let you know!... ...!

Paul...time to cook supper!... ...!

Today.... ...!

All seems to be back to normal again after sorting my Cookies out (thanks John!), clearing out my recent history, cache, etc, in my Firefox Tools Menu...

Automatically logged-in now.... ...!

....'till next time... ...!

Paul... ...!
