    Windows 7 not closing programs


    Has anyone else noticed this,

    I am using a browser, and for example looking at the forum here. When I close the browser without logging out from the forum and then restart the browser I am still logged in.

    This never happens with Vista, I always have to login again

    Does seven not close the programs properly to speed up the re-opening??

    Does this not infringe on some aspect off security? Not for me I am the only user

    Could this be a bug?

    This works for both IE and Firefox

    Hi Pooch,

    When you logged in for the first time at the forum did you by any chance leave the remember me checkbox?

    I am always logged in automatically at home, but on non secure locations I uncheck the option so as the site asks me to log in each time
