David .. I'm betting that the variables *did* expire, but that the
userreference number was re-used by someone else (from some as-yet
undetermined cached source) who logged in again, and you checked after they
had re-created the variables.

That would mean that that userreference number would also appear elsewhere
in the log, when someone logged in again using that number.

If that is the case, there is no problem with the server here, but a
perception problem, due to a cached userreference number, somewhere, whether
it's in a browser or elsewhere.

Have a look at the log and let us know.

tks,
Ian

Not to confuse this, but I tried the link again just now (a good 4 hours
after I last tried it and got logged in) and the variables no longer seem to
exist since it puts me back on the login page as it should.  Odd that I saw
it expire in the log, but it may be OK...

Ben he said he could see the variable expire in the log. Shouldn't that
indicate that the trigger is not an issue here?
