I am having to hit 'log in' and it is then logging me in without my having to enter name and password. So halfway there at least. :lol:

That's always been the case for me, I've only had to check the box, not enter ID and password. But it is still a little annoying

Same here LV.

But it's now a bit worse for me as when I do log in to read a post, I get taken to a page that tells me 'this post does not exist' :cry:
I then have to start all over again .... and sometimes again ...

I seem to stay logged in for about three minutes.

An update from my tech guy:
we think the issue has to do with some changes the provider Arvixe has recently implemented on their servers' configuration, which is affecting every single one of their clients running phpBB forums. It has to do with a cookie they generate that has a lifespan of 15 minutes. After the 15 minutes, the logins are lost. We are liaising with the provider to find a way to fix this.

That sounds like it, paolo. What's the point of a 15 minute cookie? :roll:

That would be Nirvana for me and probably very heavy; I can consume one in about 5-seconds flat.
