Try deleting the cookie, or any cookie related to ls1tech for that matter, then log back in with "log me in automatically" or "remember me" checked, and see if it changes anything. Otherwise it's likely an issue with the site and your username.

Like he said, log out, clear your cache, then log back in. See if that does it.

As mentioned above, the issue is most likely a cookie issue (not exactly cache) with your browser and is not too uncommon for it to only impact a single site you visit as each cookie is different and unique for the sites you visit.

It's normally suggested you simply delete all your cookies, which is usually easy to do in whatever browser you use, but that will delete all cookies for all sites you've visited. This means auto login and other site preferences (that are cookie-based) will be lost and have to be restored by revisiting each site and logging back in and/or setting site preferences that are cookie based.

Normally, I would suggest you simply delete all of the LS1Tech cookies to avoid the above. How you do so depends on the browser and version you're using.

If this was an issue beyond your browser's cookies, many people would be reporting the issue as it usually affects all, not just some or one.

Hope this helps!

If the issue was resolved for nearly 1 month, I'd say it was a success and insight into the issue. I will admit that such a short duration before the issue returns is strange, but is still most likely something with your browser (cookie). It's not uncommon for something like this to occur from time to time, and due to the way the cookies are used and recorded, it will usually only impact a certain website at a given time.

What browser are you using? I've never had a problem with Firefox or Google Chrome.

I use Internet Explorer. Windows XP.

I've been using this laptop for 5 years, it just started out of nowhere a couple months ago. I cleared my cookies and it worked for about a month. Its just back.

I have no clue what to look for, I'm not to great with the computer stuff.

I tried again to clear my cookies a few times and it keeps doing it. I use this computer in different states in hotels every week, and in different countries every few weeks......it does it everywhere.

Only this site.............other forums and sites I sign into with a screen name are fine.

You should be fine man, try a different web browser, like firefox. It's better than windows explorer anyway!
