Can anyone point me in the right direction to solve an annoying problem with the home computer? No, it's not the nut on the keyboard....:)

Over the last few weeks, when I log on at home, I get through the verification code check to the Welcome and re-direction screen, then when the main board index screen opens, I am not logged in.
Logging in on the works machine is fine (automatic), but as access to photo sites is barred on that, it's not ideal.

I suspected a problem with cookies, but a check through the Control Panel settings shows nothing amiss. It only seems to happen with this site, others using the same software seem fine.

Any ideas?

Many thanks,
Pugwash

Simplest thing is to use another browser to check that it's browser-related rather than anything else.

Clear out the browser cache and cookies.

Other possible problems would be with your browser security and privacy settings, plus any plug-ins / add-ons that you have installed.

Thanks for that, SD.
I've tried most of it except for an alternative browser. May be time to give Firefox a go...

cheers,
