LJ query

[venta]

If I'm logged into LJ, and I open a new browser window, I appear to be logged in in the new window, too. And if I log out from there, it logs me out in both windows.

This didn't used to happen. And I'd like it not to. Have I inadvertently checked some option somewhere which I now can't find, or has something else changed ?

(I'm using IE/Windows 2K)

Rather than identifying the cause, I'll try curing the symptoms. Or at least, changing your behaviour so the symptoms don't arise:

you could simply close the second window, without logging out. If you've set your options to "log me out when browser closes", then this should only log you out when the last window closes.

Well, yes, I had thought of that. But if your aim is to have an open, logged out window (which mine was, at the time), that doesn't really help.

As I commented above, it's gone away now and gone back to being sensible.

It's not a big problem, just of the two behaviours I know which one I'd rather have.
