    Default Annoying iGoogle Doesnt Work Like Its Supposed To!

    <rant>

    I recently switched from a locally stored HTML page to iGoogle as my home page, and the amount of problems I have with it reminds me of Windows Vista.

    I can deal with the abnormally long load time (only 5 addons), the lack of remembering settings, and the lack of it remembering which addons I wanted to add seconds before. I can maybe even deal with the "infinite refresh" bug that seems to lock up all practical use of the page if I do anything remotely intensive. What I cant deal with is the constant logging off. It KEEPS LOGGING ME OFF! Somehow Google refuses to "Remember Me" for more than a day and a half. I've checked my cookies, I've checked them twice, and for some reason, iGoogle DOESN'T PLAY NICE! Does anyone else have this problem or a solution?

    Sounds like a cookies problem to me. I'd go into your settings for cookies and set it to always keep cookies from Google. That might could be the problem, lol.

    EDIT: Just read the cookies part, lol. Umm... what browser are you using?

    I only have a dsl connection which is comparably slower then most US connections. And I use iGoogle it is loads reasonably quick for me.

    Browser: Firefox

    I tried setting Firefox to always accept cookies from Google, and keep them forever, but it doesn't seem to want to.

    I've found that if you're disconnected from the internet at all (not while the PC is off btw), it'll make you log in again, it's happened to me a few times today and yesterday when I went to a friend's LAN party. That might be the problem.
