I am continuously having to sign in, almost every visit, even though the correct box is ticked to keep me signed in.

Is this a current site glitch or something to do with Explorer 9 which has just invaded my PC.

It is a pain, but I also suffer from this but mainly on my Mac with Safari.

Windows with Firefox is behaving itself though.

I can not get on Z4-forum at the moment unless I change the DNS to 8.8.8.8.

But on my Mac with Safari, I have to log into the site 2 out of 3 times.

No DNS issues with xdrivers though.

Weird re the logout issue... Had a quick google and some folks are suggesting deleting all your cookies in Safari... seems nobody has really got to the bottom of it though.

Same thing is now happening on the iPad which it did not do before the migration. Not sure if this is the right track, but with most sites I see another cookie being issued for staying logged in. Could it be this, or is that a wild goose chase - in which case I'll get me coat and go sit in the naughty corner......

My Windows XP Box and Firefox 4 are not affected though - which may or may not help. No DNS changes required for it either.

Z2 and Z4 sites both avail with no DNS changes needed. I'm not a member of either so have not checked the login issue that some of us are seeing.

EDIT Preferences now working on the iPad too.
