Anandtech Sign In????

How many times per day is Anandtech requiring you to sign in/resign in ????

I don't have that problem, though I've heard some people do.

Did you by chance install a cookie blocker?

No I didn't install a cookie blocker.
I just changed my Internet Privacy settings to low.
I will give that a try.
I am running Firefox Win7.

You don't have CCleaner or any other program running in the background that cleans your temp files do you?

I've noticed that if I'm inactive for long periods of time the site automatically signs me out so I have to sign back in again. Is that what you're referring to?

Using Edge, I sign in dozens of times a day. Using FireFox, I never have to sign in. You are using FF too, so that alone doesn't seem to be your issue. My 2 situations are on 2 different systems, the Edge system is a barebones laptop that I don't have space to install anything on. The FF system is my desktop. Both systems use Win10, although the laptop is not up to date as I put it off because it's 8gb short of drive space on a 30gb drive(avoid the cheapest laptop you can find... lol )

"Internet privacy settings" of Low, Med, High are part of Internet Explorer, and don't affect Firefox.

Look in your specific Firefox settings, not the IE Win7 settings.

Sometimes I get logged out while changing pages/threads.

If you're using the Firefox browser, you need to look in the settings for Firefox, period. Changing IE settings IS NOT GOING TO AFFECT FIREFOX. (*)

(*) Except possibly, the default system proxy setting, which I believe is picked up by Firefox in the default configuration, but easily changed in Firefox's options.
