Some of you must have noticed the long waits when accessing this forum.
I've been onto the hosting company complaining about the slowness of their server.
Here is the latest reply from them which might give rise to hope for improvement in the near future. Let's hope so!
We apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you. I have checked your Web site: http://dragonfly-trimarans.org/phpBB/index.php and I was able to duplicate your issue. We have experiencing some issues with our MySQL server. Our highest levels of management are engaged and working with all teams to get the issue resolved. Once the issue resolved, you will be able to access your Web site pages without any issue.
whatever you did to fix the forum also fixed the login issue in Firefox. I can now successfully login in Firefox, although auto login still does not work...
Today Auto Login worked for the first time in Firefox. I did not change anything... I am on same version and OS as you are... I remember similar thing happen in Iexplorer early in the new forum format.
