I have just opened Pocket GPS World Forum Index, from a link in my favourites, and found that I am already logged in. Any ideas why this might be?

Before you suggest it, yes I have had multiple pages open in previous sessions. However, since this happened once or twice before I am very careful about making sure that I am logged out of all open pages and not just closing the pages before I finally quit the site.

Any help would be useful.

to really make sure you are logged out you will also have to clear the cookie that our site places on your computer.

There's no need to log out, logging out won't actually do anything apart from let you browse the forum without being logged in (which means you can't reply/post). I always leave myself logged in and just close the web browser and everything will be fine.

Thanks for the info. I think I understand it.

I just don't see why logging in/out is needed, if when you register you are given a cookie that identifies you each time you view the site?

Oh well! As long as there isn't some sinister imposter logged on as me I suppose it's OK

Whenever I have quit the site without logging out first, the next time I visit I need to log in. Also after this any new posts since last visit are not highlighted. This is very frustrating.

I assumed it was a cookie issue but as I did not delete all cookies and then logged in again and the same thing happened I dismissed it as a cookie issue.

It's a cookie issue, logout, delete the cookie, clear your cache and then visit the site via www.pocketgpsworld.com and you won't have an issue.
