It used to be that I would sign into my Yahoo every two weeks, but now because of that my Yahoo blog, I have to sign in every time I turn on my computer. I do not know if it is because I use Firefox, but not only that I get a notice for an unresponsive script when I go away from the computer for a couple of hours. And yet when I get to sign on to the regular my yahoo again there is the little box that if you want to not sign on to my Yahoo for two weeks, you check it. WEll every day is not two weeks. So does that annoy you?
I mean this is a private computer, there is no invisible guy behind me with a camera, and I do have a firewall. What is going on?

Sounds like the browser is not keeping your yahoo cookie, have you tried to contact tech via yahoo chat bet they could figure out the problem.

I could try it out. And see if that works. It could also be that I am Canadian and it does not work with American cookies, but I doubt it. It is only recent. I will see if Yahoo corrects it pretty soon. It could be that they did it to make sure that no evil hacker gets on our site and have gone too far. I did hear that someone else had the same problem, so all I have to do is to find out if Yahoo will make an announcement that they no longer save passwords and we have to enter it every time.

I doubt if being Canadian as a thing to do with it. But as I do not BLOG you could be right with the other.

I figure it could be a precaution that Yahoo is now taking to prevent that invisible guy behind me from pretending to be me and reading all my email.

And I still want to know how to detect that invisible hacker behind me who is able to read my password even though I have an anti keylogger on my computer. Or why Yahoo and Msn thinks that as soon as we leave the room where we have the computer, that hundreds of evil password seekers will materialize right behind us. Or maybe they jump through the windows.

I turn the computer off every night and when I have to do the update windows bit. That is what bothers me, if I just turn off the computer, then I expect that maybe I will need to re enter my password, but just turning off the browser? No way.

I do not blog or use Firefox (I use IE8) but I still have sign into my email (Yahoo) at the oddest times. Sometimes I stay logged in for a few days other times I have to log in a few times a day. I NEVER remain logged in for 2 weeks and I have checked the box. I guess it is just some thing I have learned to live with as I do not get any help from Yahoo

I am getting rather upset at this. I do not know if it is Windows or whether my Windows Xp split itself in two. It seems that way. I guess you are having the same problem as I do. I used to be able to log in for two weeks, but since they started that My Yahoo blog, I have to log in every time. At least I know that I am not the only one having this problem.
