Why do I have to sign in each time?

Dear Ed

Can you please tell me why each time I log into AnswerBank I now have to sign in?

I only have to enter my user-name, because it seems to remember my pass-word..

You probably have your browser set to clear cookies on exit.

Thanks again Chuck, can I just go through it with you though?
Click on tools
Options
Privacy

Firefox will use custom setting for history.
Auto start Firefox for private browsing session

Ticked - Accept cookies from sites
Ticked - Accept third party cookies

Location bar - Set to nothing.

Is all this OK Chuck?

[anotheoldgit]

No that didn't work either, although I clicked OK after I had selected my options it would not stay at 'use custom setting for history' it kept reverting to 'never remember history'.

So I have set it at 'remember history' and everything seems to work OK.

It's the "Auto start Firefox for private browsing session" doing it, turn that off.

Or just set it to remember history :)
