I presume you're ticking the box that says "Remember Me"

The website remembers you using a method called a cookie.
For some reason your browser's security settings may be set to not store cookies for this site. Go to the options/preferences settings for your browser. Usually under the Tools menu or the Edit menu , depending on what brower you're using and make sure the security settings are set to the default

Go firefox!

But you can end up with the same problem with Firefox as well. You may need to clear the cookies in your browser. Firefox at least makes it easy enough to do so for individual sites, IE you have to clear them all.

One problem with that - i dont have admin rights :(
I have a mate that works in systems so will have a chat to him and see what he can do.

ahk, just wondering as Firefox is rubbish at the moment for keeping cookies - PC or Mac it seems.

I havent had a single problem with cookies in Firefox 1.5.x. But version 2 on another machine has had problems at times.
