I don't get logged out of other forums and sites that require being logged in. Only Yahoo mail tells me it's time to sign in again but that's usually after a day or so.

Do you check "Remember Me?" when you login? If not, that would be the reason.

OK, I'm still logged in from this morning, and that's even after a complete shut-down. (Had an appointment - weatherman said possible thunderstorms)
Boot-up and here I am all set to go, and yes I did click on "remember me", I usually do. We'll see how long it lasts
Mac OSX 10.6.8, Safari 5.1.5, cookies set to block third parties and advertisers.
Also run Adblocker, Incognito & Ghostery....Google still gets through (I think)
As I said, it's not a major problem, just curious.
