Log out problem

The site keeps on kicking me out at random times. I click the box "log me in everytime" and all that, but Ive already had to long in a few times this morning and I havent even clicked out of the site.

You're using AOL. AOL uses a very shitty method of providing internet access that involves proxy servers fetching content for you and as a result, your IP address will change every few minutes. If your IP address changes, your session will automatically be invalidated as a security precaution. Is there any way for you to not use something as incredibly awful as AOL?

Thats what I thought because when I used IE it never happened. And dont think I can. Ever since I moved into my new house I tried uploading comcast into my computer again and for some reason IE doesnt work anymore. I think I better call comcast then.



Thanks

Yeah, sometimes it just "forgets I'm always logged in"...

I don't know if there's much you can do, cause this also happens in other forums.
