I have had an occasional problem logging in. Consequently for the last week or so I have stayed logged in 24/7 without logging out. Is that practice O.K. or does it cause a problem with the board? Stan, my guess is that you would be the most qualified to answer this concern<br><br>Bondi "B" Maxed out

precisely,<br><br>when you login, the forums will set a cookie on that machine for you...<br><br>If you use a lab environment, or others are on the computer that you are on, then you'll want to "logout" ortherwise, it shouldn't pose any problems....<br><br><br><br>***<br>"I know God won't give me anything I can't handle.

Thanks for the responses. I wasn't worried about causing myself problems, I just did not want to cause problems for the board.<br><br>Bondi "B" Maxed out

Hi Siletz,<br><br>No problem at all with staying logged in as far as the system is concerned, but as mentioned below, you'll want to log out if other people use your computer.<br><br>Thanks for asking.<br><br>Cheers,<br><br>Stan
