    IE8b2 forcing logout?

    It could be IE8b2, or it could be vb3.7.3, I installed them both on the same day. But now if I close my browser for more than a few minutes, when I open it back up and visit my forums, I have to log back in. This doesn't happen if I close my browser for just a few minutes, has to be longer.

    Before yesterday (when I upgraded both) I never had to login unless I cleared my cookies, even with IE8b1.

    A new security feature, or an IE8b2 bug? Neither? Anyone else experiencing this?

    Normally the only way to remain automatically logged in after closing your browser is to check the Remember Me box when logging in initially, unless your browser session is somehow being maintained after the browser is closed. I am not familiar with IE8.

      I do click "remember me" (actually, roboform does it for me). So this something new (for me).

        If you are only having the problem in IE8 then it must be a browser-specific problem. But I have no experience with that browser. Check your various cookie settings.

            There is major memory leaking issues in IE8 beta 2 so be warned now on this.
