Those sorts of things take a lot of explaining ………….
In a nutshell what its doing is
Its remembering a web session …..if “I” log out its says bye bye …if I just click off in the top right corner it doesn’t see me leave the forum….so when I log in again from “my “ computer it sees my IP address been presented to the website again but it still thinks im logged in because it hasn’t seen me leave

I dont log off, just close the session......
However there must be a timeout thingy or else, everyone that just closes the session, without logging off, would be shown as 'online' all the time.

I also use two ip addresses on the same pc.....i now use a netbook mostly....and have voda dongle for it....so at home i use my adsl connection.....when im out i use the dongle  :y

I know it's not very constructive to say it but have you tried using Firefox or Opera. They are both a lot better than IE and can be downloaded for free. I was skeptical before I tried Firefox but was surprised how much better than IE it was. Although this was in the days before IE gained tabbed browsing.
