Forum Timeout too short

That only adds two extra cookies of userid and password so next visit to site if sessionid is lost it will just log you in. I'm guessing they most likely have an expiration date set, but it makes no difference because all my cookies are set to expire when Firefox closes, so they are still like session cookies anyway. I never use those cookies set with Remember Me because it is less secure. I even go as far in my own PHP scripts to rotate session ids on every connect by a user, so those using my sites can't have their sessions hijacked so easily.

PowerBASIC uses this same forum and I have no issues there, so there must be a timeout setting somewhere set too short.

No issues here only time I have ever had to log back in is when I formatted my machine.
