Default Anyone any good with laptops/internet.....

As title just wondering if anyone can help me...


basically i bought a laptop (off here) nothing wrong with it but, everytime i go on a uk scooby forum it logs me out after 2 minutes or so...


i know its somat in the settings as it only does it on this laptop and no other place i go to gain internet access and log on to the uk forum???

anyone any ideas as it does my head when i see 30 threads and i start to read then when i go to post i am logged out!!

so i logged back in and and all posts are lost on (view new posts since last visit)

its 100% somat on laptop though as like i say if i go anywere else ie internet cafe or library it all goe smoothly and like it should

cheers in advance for any advice/help guys and girls

Maybe the laptop is trying to tell you something....

is the laptop running windows vista or XP?

delete your cookies and offline files from internet options under control panel. Also are you using IE or Firefox? If IE then swtich to Firefox now. Free download and you will experience a lot fewer issues.

Firefox isnt a search engine. Its a program that immitates Internet Explorers capabilities and has less crashes etc.
