Occasionally I make the mistake of hitting the refresh button on the site instead of the Firefox page refresh button. When this happens the site forgets which messages I've already viewed and shows all messages "blue" or unread. Not the end of the world, but a pain when following long threads.

I can open Beerleg, read a topic, take a few minutes to go get a cup of coffee and when I come back and hit refresh I will have to login.

Before, I could stay logged in until I restarted my computer. I probably log in dozens of times a day now.

I don't know if it is a site issue, web provider or Firefox issure. If I open more than three tabs, Firefox will crash.

I can stay logged on to Surveyorconnect,until I reboot, provided I check the box as shown below, every time, if not I will have to log on, after a period of time.

I usually have at least 6 tabs open in firefox version 18.0.2

Checking the box has no effect.

Has been an ongoing cycle for 2mos.

I was having the same problem a couple of months ago, switched from logging into Beerleg to SurveyorConnect per Wendell's suggestion, and that did it.

Same as Eddie, I logged into SurveyorConnect last year and I haven't had to "log in" since,.
