Title: logging on

Eddy, Can you tell me why when my neighbor goes on to this site, he automatically logs on as me. This happens even though he is with a different provider has a different Email address, different computer? R.G.Y. Geoff

The website uses "cookies" to store user data - These are on YOUR computer, and obviously either you or he has logged onto the site from that machine in the past, so the cookie is being read by the forum software....

To clear it, simply delete all the browser cache files on his machine - That will delete the cookie and the problem is solved.

Hope that helps?

Regards
Eddy

Oh, one thing I forgot, depending on which browser he's using, you may also have to clear the browser history files.....
