Krash.:

Had an odd thought after I shutdown last night.  You have two different members, accessing from two different computers, and both were working fine until you both logged onto the forum at the same time.  If you're both using the same internet connection, both members are logging in from the same IP address, and this may have somehow caused the problem.  It's a longshot, but try rebooting your modem to change your IP.

waltonnz:
Yes we are both using the same Internet connection and I think I know how to reboot my modem, in fact it must reboot each day as I always disconnect the power at night. What I don't know is how to change my IP. I think you're right about what happened. I may be able to phone my ISP and get them to help me change my IP. Thank you for your suggestion.

Colin:
Generally rebooting your modem will change your IP if it is not static (but dynamic). You can find out what your IP is by going to http://whatismyip.net/

Krash.:

If you have a static IP, your ISP must change it.  Most ISPs use dynamic IPs, which can sometimes be changed by shutting down the modem, but how long it must be shutdown can vary up to several days.  If your IP doesn't change overnight, you'll have to check with your ISP.

Arantor:
There is actually a bug in SMF that can cause this, and no amount of juggling IP addresses will fix it (because it's totally irrelevant)
