I'm wondering if there's been another upgrade, because I've experienced an old hiccough.
I should mention that I upgraded to NS9 as my browser a couple weeks ago; everything was working fine, and some of the problems I had were resolved. (The tags box is now visible.)
A few days ago I was logged out of the articles side but not the forum side. When I logged into the articles side, it knocked me out of the forum side, and when I logged into the forum side it seems that it knocked me out of the articles side because I had to log in again when I returned.
Just to be clear, when I hit the main page I open the articles page in a second window and click through to the forum page. The articles page takes me to a login screen, and the discussion pages loads with me logged in. I log into the articles side and am able to work there, but then the forum side logs out. I log back into the forum side, but when I return the next day the articles side is logged out.
I have not yet tried clearing cookies or passwords or anything; I thought I should check first as to whether there were any changes made at the server end.
Thanks.
