Could someone explain this to me?

For some reason my FireFox browser wouldn't open (I had to reboot my computer to get it to switch on), but I could get on the Internet using Internet Explorer, which I never use anymore. After finally logging on to the boards, I went to respond to FDK and each time I went to a new screen I would be logged out again.

So, Log-In screen. Logged in.

Went to Active Topics, still logged in.

Click on ANY of the active topics, logged out.

(repeat)

Is this something that only happens on IE? Or did my computer get dementia and needed me to do that reboot to get the Internet (and thus the boards) to function properly? This is outside of my computer knowledge.

Also, it could be the Fates telling me I need more sleep and that I should really go to bed. Any answers would be appreciated. Oh, and I speak as much computereeze as Lois, not Jimmy. Thanks. smile
