In my experience this can happen quite a lot with phpBB. Something to do with the database, I guess.

-w00t- Mozilla. I suggest you ditch M and toss on Firefox tho. MUCH nicer.

Wasn't my PC. AFAIK: Mozilla comes with Fedora. And Firefox IS mozilla.

I know that, but I've always preferred Firefox over the standard Mozilla browser, and I realize it wasn't your computer... I was just saying that you should do it.

Possible explination:

Do you use Rogers emmzee? You may have been in teh same area as the rogers internet I was using, and using the auto login may have docked your ip, and when the dynamic ip switched, I happened to get the same Ip you had used before and it attempted to sign me in.

Not possible, as far as I know. Winger and I (and a couple other people in my area) have posted from the same IP several times, but that has never caused this problem. And I doubt if your host would assign both you and Emmzee the same IP at the exact same moment... shouldn't that be impossible?

IIRC, the bug usually occurs with the autologin feature. Maybe you and Emmzee both tried to log in at the exact same time? I've never looked into the cookies that cause autologin, could you give me more detail as to how they identify a user?

FWIW, Emmzee uses Rogers Cable (Inc.) (they own 69.192.0.0 - 69.199.255.255)
to connect, though you did not have the same IP. Do a lookup for your original emmzee post and Emmzee's test post... Emmzee, do you have a log of your IP at that moment?
