Ha!:Big Grin: I only use the forums and library at home, so I stay logged in all the time, just me on this PC to boot. I use CCleaner to clean up my PC and it allows me to choose which cookies to keep (Options > Cookies), so I don't have to re-login after cleaning. It seems that after the redesign, plenty more cookies were added.I would like to find out which cookies to keep, as I've now had to login anew several times. It used to be just forums1.avsim.net and library.avsim.net.In addition to that, there are now the following: avsim.com, avsim.net, forum.avsim.net, www.avsim.com, www.avsim.com/rev. Some cookies are easy to read and give some indication as to their purpose, others contain gibberish, so perhaps you could clarify it all a little.I'm specifically interested in staying logged in, here and at the library (that has stayed the same?) and I would like the forum sidebar to remember its settings.I use IE8. Thanks!:smile:Edit: Hmmm... if this should be in "Help Using the AVSIM Forums" I apologize, it's just that I have seen similar topics in this subforum, so I didn't look any further.

Found a great little utility to get to the bottom of this: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/internet_explorer_cookies_view.html.I use some of their other stuff as well.I think part of the confusion is the main address, it went from forums.avsim.net to forums1.avsim.net, it seems it's now forum.avsim.net? I use the second one in my browser to get here, even though that works, it may create an extra cookie (at least in the above utility and it is very thorough. So I'll start with changing that. I think the avsim.net one may actually be the log-in and sidebar one.

Okay, it's definitely just the avsim.net one you need to keep for the forums. Once the rest of the site is done, probably the only one, period. FYI.
