I'm visiting my sister and borrowed her computer - Windows 10 and using Chrome. I hadn't logged on in quite a while, and now that I'm logged in I can't log out. Same issue when I went online with Microsoft Edge browser. The logout button does nothing in both browsers, everything else works. It seems the forum is identifying the computer as I can log on and off through my phone without issue.
The GMCnet forum Help section has this to say:
"How FUDforum uses cookies?
Normally FUDforum uses cookies to store a small bit of information that allows the forum to see if you are logged in or not. If for some reason your browser does not support cookies, FUDforum will instead use sessions, which do not store any information on your computer. During the login process you can choose to bypass the cookie system and opt for the session system, this is recommended if you are using a public terminal. Doing so will prevent the possible identity theft, which may occur if you do not logout after using the forum. In most cases however, you probably should leave cookies enabled as it is much more convenient in the long run. For example, you will not need to login each time you visit the forum.
How to remove FUDforum cookie?
To remove the cookie set by FUDforum, simply click the logout link and it will automatically delete the cookie."
I've never noticed a check box or whatever on the login page that lets you "bypass the cookie system", and as I mentioned the logout link does nothing.
Anybody know how I can log out so I'm not online whenever my sister is online? And, no, the option to buy the computer from her is not viable!
