I recently upgrade from version 9.05 to 9.63, MS Access version and everything works fine.
Yesterday, I found a very serious issue which I think that related to the forum cookies.
I opened my forum and I found that I already be logged in, but  into another user account. Of course, I've never used this user account before on my computer and I am the only one using this computer. One of my forum users report the same problem on his computer.

Extras info: my forum is hosted on a shared windows 2003 server, IIS6. Last week, the server administrator reported that, my forum used too much memory and therefore, sessions sometime are terminated. I setup forum to store session in the application (not in the database).

Does anyone has any ideas about this? Please help. Thank you.

Have never heard of such an issue or see how such a thing could even be possible.

This can only lead to one conclusion that either your files are corrupted or your database.

Access is not a good database which is why we only support it in a test environment and not in a live production environment.

You should first reupload all original files and then compact and repair the Access database.

I would also recommend that you switch to using the SQL Server version.

Sounds like session Id's may be getting reused.
Could be that your host is not cleaning up terminated sessions properly, or it could be something you did when storing sessions.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.

yes, I re-uploaded all original files, compacted and repaired the Access database. Now I'm waiting to see if it happens again or not.
I am planing to switch to SQL Server, unfortunately for some reasons, I will not able to upgrade to SQL Server until next years.
I am wondering if this issue related to session?

I have never heard of anything like this before, so I would agree with Bruce on his Access comments. Access is not a terrifically secure database anyway. I suggest that if you are a serious forummer who wants a good database and forum, that you consider switching to Web Wiz Hosting for your needs, and do not postpone until next year for making the move
