It won't let me logout. When I click logout(southerngale), the page just refreshes and stays the same. Anyone know what I need to do?

You might have to delete your cookies. To do that follow these steps:

1) Go to your Tools menu.
2) Go to Internet Options.
3) Click the Delete Cookies buton.

That should do it! If not let me know

Great point, Joshua. Along with my frequent Deleting Temporary Internet File and Clearing History; I Delete Cookies often, too.

Deleting Cookies when the "Logout" doesn't literally "logout" works all the time for me.

Thanks for the help. I really appreciate it.

However, is that the only way? I'll explain. A while back I stayed at my sister's house for about a week while we did some work on our house and while I was there I logged in and checked the box so I wouldn't have to log in each time....like at home. Anyway, when I left I never logged out so she can come to storm2k and actually be here at the same time as me....both of us under my username. (She doesn't post under my name!! lol) She would like to join but can't log me out and she doesn't want to delete her cookies because she'll lose all of her passwords. She has been going through her cookies trying to find the right one to delete but it is taking FOREVER!

So, is that the only way?

No, there is a folder called Cookies on your hard drive whose location varies depending on your operating system. For example, I have Windows XP Home edition. To get to mine I would have to go click on C, then Documents and Settings, then my username for my Win XP account (in my case Joshua), then Cookies is in there. Once in the cookies folder, manually delete all Storm2K and http://www.storm2k cookies, and then try again.

Thanks Josh

She deleted everything storm2k she found and she still can't logout from my name! :o

Has she checked for spyware and applied all Windows updates? You can go to http://v4.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/en/default.asp to find out about that.

After deleting the cookies make sure and close IE before trying to logout of the board. :-)

Thanks for all the help guys!

She did get it done finally by deleting all s2k cookies, closing IE, and then restarting.

She'll be joining soon!
