WHY ???

Can someone explain why, when I sign in I have to refresh in order to actually be signed in? Also, after I read a PM, I keep getting a message as if I haven't read it? Thanks

Are you clicking the "Remember Me" box at sign in? Doing so will likely eliminate the issues.

I do so every time, that is what baffles me! Thanks CC for your attempt to help.

Are cookies enabled on your browser?

Tech Specs would help

Cookies, I can probably figure out, Tech Specs, not so much!

Happens to me sometimes. I think it is just browser caching or the redirect happening before the site can read your cookies.
