If I'm on for more than 10 minutes and only at certain places I get the Token expired window and then it says: go back to last page and refresh, so I do that and it does it again. Don't make me beat up my puter, LOL

Does it have anything to do with the html thingy at the bottom of my pages? cause they say off next to them?

I get timed out fairly fast too. I read more than I post but when I do post I try to make it fast but I still get the timed out message often. I haven't lost a reply because I can click my back arrow and copy my reply then log back in and post it.
If there is a program setting to change the idle/timeout setting it would be great if it could be changed to a longer setting. If there is something I can do with my settings to help this, please let me know.

So this is a different error than the "missing or mismatched" token error a few people were getting before?
Can you be more specific about "certain places"?
Have you tried the clearing cookies steps again?

Vacker yours shouldn't time out if you use the "Remember Me" box when you log in.
I've walked away from mine for hours and still been logged in. We're trying to figure out why this is happening to you, MsEddi.

I have checked the Remember Me box several times but it doesn't retain my username. I'll keep trying and see if it sticks. Thank you for the information and I'll let you know how it continues to act with me.

OK - it sounds like your browser is not accepting the cookie (I love how I sound like I know what I'm talking about there) It has to do with your security settings, and hubby has written an instruction so some others on how to fix this, but he did it in email, I think, so I can't find it.
When he sees this, hopefully he'll copy and paste it. It sounds like what you need.
There is a way in your IE to make it accept the cookie from this site.

I believe it is accepting the cookie but now that I think about it .... I run alot on my computer including full length concerts and I clear my cookies and temp files often so that would clear the cookie. I think my issue with the timed out is of my own doing and I will keep track of my tasks that I'm doing to make sure this is what my issue is. Again, thank you for your information I think it probably is the cookies with me since I clear them so often and I'm glad you brought that up.
