I just got a Vista laptop and when ever I try to login to the forum it dosen't completely do it. By "not completely" I mean it shows at the bottom that I am currently online, but the top still says "welcome guest" and when I try to post it acts like I am not longed it. If I use my XP computer it works fine. I am using Internet Explorer.
Has anyone else come across this problom.

You're the first as far as I know. Hmmm... What happens if you login and directly refresh the page? Do you keep being listed as an active user? If so, this might be a problem that needs a little digging into!

Well I logged in and hit the fresh button and I was still on the active users list. But I didn't know how long it keeps you as an active user after your last click. I let the page sit there for 10-15 min and refresh it; I was no longer on the active user list.

The minimal "stay logged in for" time is 15 minutes. The default is 6 hours. Can you do another little test? Log in, wait 5 minutes and hit refresh. Then post a message (as a guest) telling me whether you're still in the active user list or not. That way I can also see the time you were trying to log in plus whether or not your IP address is being registered properly.

You logged twice under the same IP address. That at least is a good sign. How are you connected to the Internet? Directly via the modem or with a router?
