Logging in - and staying in!

[PPRuNe Pop]

Of late I have been logging into PPRuNe and go to my intended site and I click as usual and then I get put back to my desktop. It happens with almost any log-in at any time. It's starting to get annoying now. Any clues please? I tryagain and am 'asked' if I want to 'restore my last session.' I can but it is an annoyance I would like to avoid.

Sounds like the browser is crashing, possibly due to malware or maybe a bad plugin
Remove all the plugins / addons, default the browsers and try again. If that works reinstall the plugins you want, one by one.

Which browser do you use and what the exact error message?

[PPRuNe Pop]

IE 8, Milo. "Your session closed unexpectedly." then in a block it says [Restore last Session?]

Set IE to its defaults, clearing any personalisations and see it if works
If it does, then reinstall Flash / Java with the latest versions, and re-enable the antivirus plugins
