Running UBB Classic 6.7.2

I'm having a problem in searching the member list from within in my control panel. In searching for an individual member, I get the appropriate input screen. But when I add search criteria and click "Begin Search", I am returned to the Log In screen where I am asked for my username and password. If I submit username and password, I'm returned to the Control Panel home screen. (Even if I don't submit UN and PW, I am still logged on to the control panel with just a blank screen.)

Anyway, if I then return to Member Management / View/Edit Members, the process repeats itself and becomes cyclic. The prebuilt searches "Inactive Members", "Last 50 Registrations" , etcetera seem to work okay. Also, I can access an individual member record from their link on the board proper. That works fine and takes me directly to the members record. However I can go no further than that. If I try to do an additional search while I'm in the control panel. I enter the routine described above.

Any ideas why I can't execute an individual (or group for that matter) search from my control panel?

By it logging you out it sounds like there may be a cookie issue... You may also check permissions on files (likely those in your cache)...

Another item would be to clear all cookies in your webbrowser.

Do you have any other webscripts installed on your server? It could be that some are being "rolled off" (you can only have so many cookies active at once)

Thanks for the help! However, I've determined the problem. It my browser! I only get this behavior in IE. I downloaded the Foxfire browser, and things work just fine there. I've been running PC's for twenty years now, and I've just about had my fill of Microsoft.

Thanks again for the help.
