I've got a bunch of steps for people to follow if you're getting issues with Fire Fox. I'm guessing you can still do the same things within IE or Opera but this ha just been trialed through FireFox and so far it's worked for me wonderfully. As I was getting logged out everytime I came to visit the forum.
I've made the highlighted in RED and numbered the steps with screenshots.
First Step-
Second Step-
Third up to Eight Step-
This is getting rid of all the cookies that 'Deleting Forum Cookies' won't get rid of.
OPTIONAL but important IF you have FF remember your password for this forum!
Ninth up to Thirteen Step-
Step 11 you simply type in comicspriceguide.com and search for the forum username and password...DELETE IT!
Final steps-
a) Close Fire Fox
b) Reopen browser
c) Come back to CPG forum
d) Sign in with username and password
e) DO NOT allow FireFox to remember your password for this forum.
f) Make sure you click ' Remember Me? - Automatically login on future visits.' as this is different from FireFox remembering it.
Since doing this I haven't had a single problem with being logged out! I'd recommend this a try atleast.
For those who cannot view pictures-
1) Used Delete Cookies on CPG forum
2) Manually deleted all the extra cookies in Firefox in the Privacy area
3) Deleted my CPG forum password from my FF browser (I had it remember it)
4) Shut down browser
5) Went to CPG forum and retyped my log in name and password
6) Ticked the 'remember me' on the CPG forum
7) DIDN'T allow FF to remember my password for the site
8) Browsed/Posted on the forum but also opened and closed the browser a lot to see if the CPG forum would remember my account.

Ok I have tried it, and I will let you know how it goes. Your version of Firefox is slightly different from mine though.
Where does he get those wonderful toys!
I have yet begun to surrender.

What version do you have?
Mine is: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.9.0.1) Gecko/2008070208 Firefox/3.0.1
I'm also using Windows XP...So if you've got Vista it might skin FF slightly different (though I don't know that for sure).

Apparently you have a slightly newer version than the US as we do not have 3.0 yet.
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.16) Gecko/20080702 Firefox/2.0.0.16
Funny thing though, now that I look at it, the revisions are the same date yet you have an 08 in yours, must be a downunder thing.
Shoot! I hate editing. Forgot to mention, third time here and it is still working for me.

Strange, I would have thought the GB and US versions would be the same :/
So the forum isn't giving you any problems now?

Earl- Thank you ^^

So far so good. We have found out how to fix a problem we still don't know how it occurred. That is the mystery that needs to be solved and why only some and not all?

Perhaps...it's a conflict between the cookies and the option to have windows remember passwords?...That's what was changed on Set's instance...

In my case what I posted worked. BUT I don't have IE or Opera remember my passwords and I was still getting logged out with those two!...So the problem I think is only partly fixed for FF users if they did the same as me.
Still, I think it's strange this forum is the only one having issues with FF remembering the password and not the actual site. Other boards I go to haven't had this problem. Possibly because their forum software is more common than "Instantforum.NET". Just a thought.
