Logs me out when I exit ​

Defect Category

Browers Tested

• Google Chrome (mobile)

Detailed Description

Up until recently, my browser would keep me logged in all of the time. I could close the browser, and when I come back to CF, it would automatically log me in. The last one or two days, this doesn't happen anymore. I have to type my login and password every time. This is happening on my Chrome browser at home, my Chrome browser at work, and my Chrome browser on my Android phone. Is this a bug or an intentional behavior change for security? I prefer it the old way. ​

Happening for me with Google. I assumed it was just a purposeful change of some sort.

I have this problem too with the main android browser (not Chrome).

Super annoying as I'm not completely sure what my password is, and it wont let you surf on mobile without logging in.

I wish I could at least have the browser remember my password for when this happens.

I thought maybe CF had a threat from the North Koreans. Seriously, I've had the same issue. Also have not been able to review before posting.

Guys -We added a new security patch to VBulletin late last night. I assume that is why this is happening. I'll check with Sam and get back to you. Thanks.

My 2 cents, Chris: It's been happening to me for a week or two, but it's EVERY time I refresh (ie click on "new posts")...I get kicked to the log-in page. My user name & password autofill, so it's a matter of two or three keystrokes, but it's a pain in the patootie.

This is only happening on my laptop. My home and work desktops have had no issues. I use Firefox on all three for the browser; the OS on the laptop is {{(!&Y)(&%&Y$%&@}} Windows 8 - the desktops are older Windows systems.

Try clearing your cache fellas. It isn't happening to me on my iPad or PC anymore.
