I turned on my computer this morning and when I went to browse my usual series of sites where login and password are saved (GRM, FB, etc.) I had been logged out of all of them. Anit-virus is up to date, but I did do a windows update yesterday. Anyone else have this issue?

I don't want to login to my bank or email (I always manually log onto them) before I figure out what is going on. Thanks!

The Windows update probably dumped all you cookies.

I hate wasted cookies.

Thanks for the tip. That was it. I checked my cookies and they were all gone except for the sites i've visited today. I hate it when that happens. Now i have to remember the login name and password for all the sites I go to irregularly. I try to keep them the same or similar, but sites from a long time ago...

Microsoft...can't live with it, can't work without it....

On my droid everytime I dump the internet history, it dumps all my saved internet links as well.

I always seem to remember that after I clear the history.

If you have the option to use Firefox, it can remember your login and p/ws for you even if you dump your cookies.

Windows, at least the version I have, always asks if I want a password and/or login remembered. 90% of the time it works, but occasionally it doesn't.

Firefox updated itself from 4.0 to 5.0 today, and the Bookmarks list is gone, too.

You'll need to log in to post.
