are you using .net or .com?

Use .com works for me. .net doesn't save login info.

Delete all STF cookies and give it a try.

Still not working. Neither from my home computer nor my office computer...

Don't know what's wrong. Please check your virus protection and firewall settings , as applicable. No one else I'm aware of is having this problem. Can only think it is on your end. Wish I could be more help.

What browser? Firefox or IE?

Do you have your browser set to clear all cookies, passwords, cache, etc.... after you close the browser?

Has to be a browser setting on your computers that is set the same.

Both browsers on my home computer and IE on the office computer and I have set browser to save cookies. All other forums I frequent works fine...

In firefox.

Tools / Clear private data.
Make sure what you don't want to clear when browser closes is not checked.

I leave passwords only not checked.

Tools / Options / Privacy
I check Everything, Keep cookies until "they expire"

Optional to choose to clear upon closing the browser....I like to keep my cache and cookies deleted.

Tools / Options / Security
Check "remember passwords" for sites. (Make sure to look in the exceptions button to insure STF isn't in the list)

You can also go to "Saved Passwords"....make sure that you don't have duplicates for the site listed. You may have 2 passwords listed, so it isn't sure which to use next time you navigate to the site.

Try this list for starters. It's a browser problem for sure.
My $1 is on that you have more than one saved password or have STF on a list blocking the browser's memory.

All those settings are ok.

I just realised that I might have to check my hyperlink in the Favorites. And yes, now it seems to work... I have to update the link in the Favorites at work too and see if it works there too.

Sorry for bothering..

No bother. No worries.
