Do you tick the remember me box when you log in?

That should solve the problem

I used to have the same issue. I cleared out my internet cache (temp internet files) signed in clicking the remember me box and have not had to sign back in since. Perhaps it has something to do with your interwebz cookies.

Is this a new computer Simon? Do you have a setting in explorer called private browsing or do not track?

If you have Firefox give that a go.

When you have explorer open click on Tools, then Internet Options.
Go to the Privacy Tab. Click on sites and add http://fordforums.com.au
