Several of my members are complaining of this, I believe both were using firefox. I think It has also happened to me but I figured it was just me.

Bernard from nearby-an-airport Associate, 6696 posts	on Feb. 16 If I understand you correctly, the usage of links received by e-mail can break on-going session, correct?
AnsteyER 301 posts	on Feb. 16 That's what it seems like. I'm not sure if it breaks the session if the link is followed rather than cut and pasted.
Bernard from nearby-an-airport Associate, 6696 posts	on Feb. 17 The code of `users/login.php`, checked tonight, is assuming that surfer is not authenticated when using the link received by e-mail. This behavior will be changed to preserve on-going session, if any.
