Anyone else getting this problem?

Ok well this never happened to me before except for the past 2 or 3 days. When I come onto the site I can't seem to stay logged in for some reason. Like it keeps logging me out even when I am activly looking at the site. When I see a topic and it has multiple pages I can't click on a specific page or it logs me out. This won't work on the User CP or just a forum page. To see a second or third page I have to go into the topic(by clicking the topic title) and THEN clicking page 2 or more. Also if I stay inactive for more then 5-10 minutes it logs me out as well, which is how I just lost a post which pissed me off. This never happened before. I used to be able to log in and then stay on here for a while, leave for a while and still be online, then I could get offline and come back a few hours later and I would still be logged in. Now all of a sudden I am having a really really hard time with this. Is anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?

If your using Firefox, you don't have to turn on cookies, just click on the "Exceptions" button were youi turn on/off cookies. Under this option you can allow certain sites to give you cookies without having to turn it on and off.

Well I'm not sure if this is related or not but its some weird thing where now for whatever reason whatever website any of my family go on some thing pops up about cookies or something and says do you want to block it or permit it. The regular MSN homepage won't show up either, it says to sign in or something. Then theres an option if you click the box to always answer whatever it is you chose. I don't remember but I think I might have picked to always block All Games by accident. The problem with this is I don't know how to reverse that. I mean I can still get into the site and sign in and do whatever, its just a big annoyance to me when trying to view a multiple page topic, when it never was before.

It sounds like its been set to ask before it accepts or rejects a cookie.

Well we have Windows XP and then Verizon DSL with MSN(it might be "Premium" MSN but I'm not sure not like it matters or that I care) and then we also have MS Internet Explorer. As you can see I really do have an honestly good reason to be pissed off at MS and Bill Gates. I don't get why this happened though since it wasn't set like that before. It just seems to have happened. I checked the cookie settings for us from the Control Panel in the Internet Settings and Privacy and its set at the exact same level as its always been. This seems to have just randomly happened and I have no clue why. It also gets annoying since that thing pops up for every new website I go to, so I just allow it since then I have things like this happen.

The only thing I can think of to check in IE is go to Tools>Internet Options and select the content tab and click on the "Content Advisor" button and see whats listed under the Approved Sites tab. It could also be some setting the the Verizon software.

Exercise due caution, I could be wrong in both counts.
