When I switch to another page it times out about half of the time. It does it almost all the time when I go to Notifications.

When you sign in, you have to click the box that essentially says "Remember me," though it's been so long I can't remember the exact terminology.

I don't do that for security reasons. I will try it and hope the wife doesn't fined out. She is a web security guru with rules and she isn't afraid to use them.

Well she ain't real bright if she thinks staying logged in isn't safe, but allowing scripts to run on the site is okay. If you're able to like a post while you're here, you've got scripts allowed for the site and for ajax.googleapis.com, that's a hell of a lot more risky than simply staying logged in. Though to date, when I have the site allowed, I've never had anything untoward occur or residual issues. Nonetheless, it's the scripts on a page that are the dangerous part.

She happens to be real bright, the best in her company. She has been doing it for years. Just short of a white hat. I suggest you don't know what the F you are talking about at this point. End of conversation.

Here is what pissed me off. She has been a DBA, software developer, software analyst, web developer and now she does security quality assurance and software security. You don't know her. She is very very smart and I am sure she knows a lot more than what you do and you havee the audacity assume you know more and that she isn't so bright. She has been working software for more than 3o years. She did punch cards and she is leading edge for a world wide company. I suggest you don't know what you are talking about.

You may of course suggest whatever you like. I'll still be chuckling at the foolishness of worrying if you're permanently signed in while not caring about the scripts that are running on nearly every page you look at, the links therein, the scripts on those pages.... LMAO.
