There is way it would be a SESSION with a super long timeout - that would eventually kill the server I think (as the session information would be stored in the server's RAM). It must be a cookie is my guess.

This is probably a stupid question, but I have no pride. Consider the Adobe Forums. Let's say I login to the forums on my computer at work. Now, let's say I close my browser, go home, call in sick the next day, and return to the office a day later. When I return to the Adobe Forums on the same computer, I am still logged in. How, exactly, is this being handled? Does the session I created when I first logged in have a really long timeout? Is this being handled by a cookie? Or is there something else going on?
