Firefox does not "Remember me"

[mpikounis]

I was testing firefox v2 today and realised that my site no longer "remembers me". If I close the browser or the session times out VB asks for a password again.

Is this a known Firefox thing or is there something wrong with VB (or my site)?

(edit) I just realised that in this forum, Firefox does "Remember me". So what is wrong with my site? I am using VB3.6.1

I think this is the data loss issue in vb3.6.1 upgrade to vb3.6.2 immediately

But this problem only occurs with Firefox, IE works fine. Also I thought the data loss problem was related to some specific thread functionality which I am not using.

Any ideas? I can't have my firefox users log-in every time!

Check this setting in Firefox.

Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies > Keep Until

I suspect you have 'I close Firefox', with that setting you need to enter your forum in the exceptions.
