Keep user logged in when using 2 computers

The scenario is: I have one computer at home and one computer at work.
Every time I log in in one computer, it signs me off on the other computer.

Is it possible to stay logged-in in both computers?
If it’s not built into the forum, where can I change it?

 Thanks!

Originally the forum use to do this, but for security reasons it was changed so that each time you login a new security code and cookie are created.

If you wish to remove this (which is not advisable) then you would need to edit the file 'login_user.asp'

Unless you know ASP it will be quite complex.

You basically need to re-write the logic so that the usercode is read in from the database, instead of creating a new usercode and saving it to the database.
