If you find that you are being asked to log in more than once, and that the log in screen appears when you switch between pages, you may find that your Firewall is blocking 'Third Party Cookies'.

Because this site uses cookies, and two different domain names - it uses bassa.co.uk for the bulk of the site, and bassanewsforum.co.uk for the news and forum - when you switch from the Forum or News page to another part of the site, it regards the cookies used as a 'third party' cookies.

Solution
