I have IE 7 and I keep getting logged off. This is also happening on a few other accounts I have. Is this something new that websites don't let you save cookies? I have my IE set to Medium security and it allows all cookies.

Is there anthing else I can do?

Try an alternate (and much superior) browser like Firefox or Opera as a test. Cookies are maintained separately by each browser, and so this would tell you if the problem is in IE7.

This is free and worth your time:

Firefox (http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/)
Opera (http://www.opera.com/)

Also, drop IE7 quickly and move to IE8 if you still want to use IE at all - both browsers fail standards tests rather badly, but IE8 is better and certainly more secure.

IE usage worldwide has fallen from over 90% to under 65% in a very short time due largely to Firefox. I expect IE to drop below 50% by end of 2010.

Does the IE7 medium security setting allow it to remember passwords? Maybe it is set up for multiple users that way so your kids do not read your emails.

You should research this on the web. I'm sure google will provide zillions of answers. However, it's obviously a problem with the settings or software you have installed on your computer. Since I have no idea what those settings or software items are, I'm afraid I can't help you.

Good luck.
