loging in/out

[Polly2]

Hiya

Does it matter if I don't log out? I tend to stay logged in all the time and then when I go online I haven't got to bother iyswim.

I clicked on remember me, so i never log out either!!!!

Im not here all the time i promise lol

[angeldelight]

I am always logged in but sometimes depending on how I close down my computer it does sometimes log me out

Not sure why though

I'm not sure what happens with me when I log off - I do log off but when I come back I'm still here if you see what I mean!

Do I look like I'm always here? Ha ha! I'm not!

[angeldelight]

No sometimes you are not here Lorri

Well thats what I was wondering "do I look like I am always here??"

Also was worrying that people could get access to my computer - not sure really?

[angeldelight]

I do not think that can happen Holly !

If you turn your pc off then come back into the forum you know if you are logged in still if you do not have to put your password in again

If it does not ask for your password then you have been here since the last time you were here but if you have to put in your password again then you must have logged out last time you were here

If you understand that

as soon as you close internet explorer you're no longer logged in, it's just that your cookies remember your password when you click on forum address. I can close explorer down and view the forum as a guest on firefox and i won't be logged in.

Sorry i haven't explained it very well

I never put my password in.

It just tell me the last time i visited.

Surely if i turn laptop off, then it wont show im here?

Sorry im a bit thick when it comes to computers?

[Minnie Minx]

no it won't lou as you would have in theory logged out of the system. If you did a spyware test and removed all of the spyware in your cookies then you would have to log back in with your password.


Drat i know what i mean but can't put it into words, sorry

lol lou, I've got it logged on all the time

I thought if I left the page I wouldn't be on? Is that right? I really have no idea, I just know when I click favorites I get straight on

[Polly2]

Right!!! I think I understand - thanks Theresa, you are making sense

I never put my password in, my cookies remember it

Main thing is I don't have to worry about it. Good ha ha

[Minnie Minx]

yep that's it and no one can access your account (unless they are a very good hacker), so don't worry

[angeldelight]

I am a good hacker !!!

[Minnie Minx]

If you stay logged in you will not always be shown as here because if you are inactive for a while it takes you off the 'who's on line' thingy.

[Polly2]

Thanks for explaining that Pauline

[LittleMissSparkles]

i didnt know that either Pauline, thank you x

Did you like my very technical jargon? (i.e. "thingy")
