Is it me or in the last month or so do you notice you have to log into the "My Ebay" page now after 24 hours? Used to be you could stay logged in indefinately. Now everyday when I go to look at current auctions I always have to log in.

I've noticed it as well. That keep me logged on check box I guess is just for show!

Yeah, the cookies must be set to expire after like 24 hours.

If I get on eBay from home I have to log in every day. If I get on from work I never have to log in. I can only think of 2 possible reasons for this:
1. My IP address at work is probably the same every day. At home Comcast probably assigns a different IP address every time I get on the Internet.
Or (and this is my best guess)
2. At work I run my sniping program. So it updates the auction list every hour. So, if eBay has a time-out for inactivity, I never exceed that time on my work computer.

I have the same problem - Ticks me off to have to log in all the time :confused:
It must be option #2 then as I have a fixed IP and it doesn't stop me from having to log back in.

I think it has something to do with the cookies cause if I keep my browser open all day long I can get in... but If I close my browser and reopen it, then I have to log back in, the "keep me signed in" doesn't do didlly for me
