    I can't log out

    Why can't I log out? I click it and nothing happens.

    It just pulls up a dialog box and makes it so you have to log in again. If it's still not working all you have to do is close the window and delete the cookies for the 2 sites and you will be logged out.

    and it begs the question: WHY would you want to log outta here?

    Well, if you're on a computer you share with someone else, you might want to log out. If you're on a public (eg, library) computer, you definitely wanna log out before you leave. Other then that, I see no reason anyone would want to log out here.

    You can log out anytime you like,
    But you can NEVER leave!

    LOL, I always log out of things, because can't your data be accessed by someone with poor intentions if you are always logged in?

    I'll work on that Alex, though I'm not sure what you said and I have no idea how to get rid of cookies. Hmmm..

    Madison, eat the cookies and they will disappear, methinks.

    The only person that can see your 'data' on a forums such as this is someone that has access to your actual browser on your machine. Hence public library access its important to log out. Or a shared machine.
    Other than that, no - it really doesnt do anything for security.

    I log out from time to time. I never have problems logging out. I do it when I have an urge to delete my account. The urge always passes and I'm grateful to still be here.

    We're glad you're still here, too.

    Sooo..if I lose it, or it gets stolen, and they can hack the sign-on, then they could access my account here, too? Cuz I hafta travel with it, which increases the theft/loss risk.
