Keep getting kicked off site

Troubleshooting

The site is set to not log you off, unless you request to be logged off.  If you are experiencing an issue where the site seems to kick you off for no apparent reason, it could be an issue with your cookies or cache.  Over time, cookies can get corrupted which is why forcing a logoff is often beneficial.  But since we have received the request not to auto-log off, it may be necessary for you to clear these cookies from time-to-time.

How to clear your cookies will depend on the browser software you are using.  Below, a few specific instructions are listed but browsers update quite frequently and it may be necessary for you to do an internet search on how to do this in your browser.  Just search by the words 'delete cookies Firefox 34.0.5', or whatever browser you're using.

Typically, most internet browsers will clear cache every time you shut it down so if you continue to have trouble, often a shut down and restart will fix most issues .. this is especially helpful if you tend to keep your computer on (without shutting down) for long periods of times, or even days.
