    I'm still waiting for anyone experiencing this problem to tell me when they think this began. This was an important question, not a passing statement to make. There are potential issues that can possibly be related to the software, but they typically revolve around when an upgrade has occurred, and I'd think it would impact more than two people out of thousands of users. We haven't had a new software release for some time now, probably 4-5 months. If an issue were to be caused by that, the problem should have started around that time.

    I've kept this reply box open for 28 minutes, and nothing has timed out.

    Good Morning Scott, I came onboard in April this year and have had this time window from the beginning. I have to agree that your software is not at fault. I'll take some time today to look a little deeper into my software settings. Jamie's suggestion with security settings may prove fruitful. This seems to only come into play when posting, your system loses the posters idenity but the site connection and log in is maintained. I assume I'm looking for a setting that cuts off my posted information from being recognized by your software even though the log in hasn't been cut off. Hmmm

    To be more clear on this, When attempting to post the timed out message the dialog request a new log in but the log in actually hasn't been lost.

    I reset defaults on internet options and Norton settings. I'm going to start timing some post here to see the results if any.

    Test 3 Start time 9:33
    Twenty plus min. on the last one. Maybe resetting defaults to Norton and internet options are an easy fix.

    Thumbs up Re: Token Warp-drive

    30+ min. Got to go do some daughter stuff now but I believe the problem has been resolved unless it's intermittent. Thanks for the input everyone.

    SWAG: could be related to DHCP settings. If the release time of the assigned address is set atypically small, it could cause a hiccup.

    I don't know about the Norton version for Mac but there have been issues with different versions for PC. In one earlier version that I used the Norton firewall would block all traffic in both directions and the only way I could fix it was to remove it and re-install.

    After doing the test earlier I was pretty sure that resetting my defaults had corrected this short posting window of this thread. It came up again and I was sure I hadn't waited 30+ min. as my last test. I decided to go back to this thread and see if anything new had surfaced. I then noticed that on my test post the post times were an hour earlier than when posted. I made note of it and decided I would come back to it later and investigate. To my surprise and dismay the second time I checked it out the time was correct. Thinking I must be losing it I checked it out again this morning. Sure enough the post time was an hour too early again. I saved the page and left and came back, same screen. Hmmm I decided to log in and check again. Bing! The time was correct after logging in. Don't know if this will help solve this mystery but at least I'm glad to know I wasn't imagining the hour glitch.

    I tried posting some pictures to a thread last week, and got the "security token" message. Turns out the pics were too big. I resized them and it worked fine.

    Question Re: Token Warp-drive

    Weird is right. The intermittent part makes it even more difficult. I would never have noticed the hour difference in posting time if I hadn't run the earlier test to see if resetting my defaults would correct the problem. I haven't had the time window stop my latest postings since the test but once but the hour difference in posting time between not logged in and logged in is nothing short of bizarre. This hour difference isn't intermittent. Any time I read postings before logging in they are an hour early. I sent copied pages of the time before log in and after to Scott. He can view these files as a goggle doc.'s This site has a wealth of career computer programmers, etc. I'm confident they will make this paranormal computer behavior understandable and correctable.

    I found the problem mandoid. Go into your time setting and see if your internet update is working. Mine had stopped updating back when a pc cleanup was done and wasn't showing up on the first window until I went into the internet update function.
