Is this happening to anyone else? ETA Okay, looks like even when I'm logged out, I'm still on the "guests and robots" list.

Is this happening to anyone else? The Tubular.net cookie may be corrupted. Try deleting the Tubular.net cookie and then log on again so that a new one is created. I betcha it works. Back to top

Sweetpea Group: Members Posts: 1476 Joined: April 2007 Posted: April 08 2008, 14:03 Thanks for the suggestions, guys. I hadn't run a "window washer", Scatterplot, but now I'm all hyped for some spring cleaning. Alan, I hadn't gotten around to trying your cookie deletion idea, but since I haven't been forcibly kicked off today, I assume the problem has solved itself. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?

Alan D Group: Members Posts: 3670 Joined: Aug. 2004 Posted: April 08 2008, 15:18 Well, I was ejected from my login too, today, so either a) someone has got it in for both of us; or b) there's a lot of corruptcookieitis about; or c) Tubular.net is attempting to do some spring cleaning of its own.

Scatterplot Group: Members Posts: 1980 Joined: Dec. 2007 Posted: April 09 2008, 02:04 Actually now that I'm thinkin' 'bout it, running window washer might have fixed it. I run it at home several times a week. Every time, I have to log in again. At work I can't do that, so I just stay logged in 24/7.   -------------- We raise our voices in the night Crying to heaven And will our voices be heard Or will they break Like the wind Back to top

Sweetpea Group: Members Posts: 1476 Joined: April 2007 Posted: April 17 2008, 14:25 Oops. I forgot to get back here with an update on the situation. Since the problem occurred again, I went ahead and deleted all my cookies, which solved the issue Alan, thanks. Of course, that was before realizing there's a handy "delete cookies set by this board" thing right at the bottom of the main page. So now I'll know exactly what to do if this happens again. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?

I've never noticed that! So, when you deleted your cookies I suppose you lost the other 'useful' ones too? Sorry about that! Back to top

I think you should send me real cookies to make up for it.

However, just as I was reaching for the brown paper and string, I checked my advice earlier in this thread, and it reads: "Try deleting the Tubular.net cookie". The cookie, observe, not cookies. I'm afraid our company policy advises that recompense can only be provided if our instructions are followed exactly. Back to top

I used a screen wipe on my monitor and that seemed ok. I'm still logged on. Meanwhile the cookies are going down very nicely. In fact rather too nicely. -------------- Clotty Back to top

ATM I could go for some chocolate chip cookies in the shape of a tubular bell (heavens, they're tasty! ) -- a weekend project? It does seem a pity that something so dull as a computer cookie should share the same name as something so desirable as a real, munchable cookie, of whatever variety. And as a side issue: if tracking cookies were edible, people would have far fewer objections to them. [Why do I talk so much nonsense? And how do I stop?] Back to top

Caveman, I thought there might have been a teensy chance that you harbored a slight grudge over the near-fatal punning incident. I should have known better! Oh, and I must've missed your "outburst", so - as far as I'm concerned - you're still a comfy, brown, suede ottoman to me. -------------- "I'm no physicist, but technically couldn't Mike both be with the horse and be flying through space at the same time?
