... but I know I'd logged off, the last time I used du! The really scary part? I know I shut down my computer at work completely & restarted it (as I do every night before I leave) on Friday.

Am I being paranoid, or has this ever happened to anybody else?

Shouldn't shutting down and restarting a computer clear out cookies & log a person out?

It sort of freaked me out. Needless to say, I didn't feel comfortable posting anything from work!



p.s., I think I'll change my DU password now, too, while I'm thinking about this.

I am a computer idiot but the answer is no.

Some sites do,some don`t guessing it has something to do with the type of cookie they use.

thundley4:
Total time logged in: 7 days, 22 hours and 33 minutes.


I never log out out, even when I shut the computer down.  If a site allows me the option of staying logged in "Forever", I do it.
