Every couple of days when I come to this BBS on my home computer I have to re-log in. When I use the computers at work, I'm already logged in, and some of those computers I don't even use for over 2 weeks. It doesn't make sense to me that I can sit down in front of one of the work 'puters that I haven't used in many days, I'm logged in, but then I go to my home computer and I have to log in even though I was logged in at home just a few hours before. Is there a setting I need to change to allow my log in to last longer?

Internet cookies are often a security leak on many computer systems and networks. As annoying as it is to some, reloging in that is, its worth it to erase the cookies often. They also waste space on your HD. There is a setting to erase cookies every so often and I believe its in internet explorer options. Go to "tools"->"internet options"->"general" tab and there should be an icon to click to delete cookies.
