Has there ever been a problem of an ADT member & their ADT info. being keylogged by somebody? I could not log on at all for all of yesterday afternoon & night. I feared that someone had gotten my info someway and posted an obscene article on ADT using my name. I came to this conclusion as Astro locked a thread of mine in Polls but I don't know what it was. I write down all the threads I enter on ADT and I couldn't find what Astro had locked as the title of the thread is removed. Im thinking that it's the accidental double post "Watches in Porn Scenes" thread. I nevertheless feared that someone had gotten my password, entered something obscene and I was on the way to deactivation. So I waited till this morning and saw that I was not deactivated and tried logging on again and I still couldn't get on. When I log on to ADT I usually remove the check in the Keep Me logged In box but I left it in this time and I was able to get on. For some reason I can't log in anymore when I remove the check. Is this an admin thing going on or is there a problem on my end of the line?

Could be a bug. I'm not sure. Some cookies we set stick around for a year or until you clear them. So if you cleared your cookies recently or one timed out there could be a bug related to the "Keep me logged in" setting. I'll have to do some testing with that.
I haven't heard of any keylogger problems. We did have a problem a few years ago when someone used a trojan to take over DenverDon's computer and subsequently downloaded everyone's email addresses and passwords from the forum admin area. We changed everyone's passwords at that time and have updated the pages in the admin area to not display any passwords.
Our cookie data is encrypted as well. A long time ago username and password combinations where set in clear text in the cookie files. It's possible that someone might have had access to those files on an old computer. When we switched to cookie encryption the forum would have automatically removed the old cookies if you logged in as the same user usin the same browser (and Windows user account for Windows users.)

In the mean time you can use the "Keep me logged in" and then logout when you're done with your visit. If you click the logoff link at the top right of the page it will remove your forum related cookies.
