Has anyone else experienced this while using the DB? Sometimes when you're using the site and you do a search, it seems to bog down and eventually comes back up with this warning
"(Name here)is still logged in on another computer.
You must first log out from that computer.
A simultaneous log in attemp was noted to you account.
Multiple such attemps may lead to suspension of your subscription."
I never left my seat at the computer, and now I can't log out and any attempts to re-enter the site to log out gives me more warnings. Anyone else have this happen?

I've had it happen well over a hundred times...and not once was I actually signed in on two computers at once.
It happened a lot more when I was on AOL which, as I understand it, does not assign each computer a permanent IP address. This might have led the DB software to conclude I was accessing the database from different computers. Until a few months ago, there was only one computer from which I had ever accessed the DB.
It still happens once in a while, especially when as Foo mentions, a search result doesn't load properly. Clicking the "refresh" button will usually result in the DB locking me out.
