On the old PCA system you could put your log on details and password in the URL. This won't work on the new PCA Forum? Please advise how this can be added in the URL so it will work? Thanks David

Use as a homepage or paste a link on your desktop or favourites (bookmarks)

as long as you do not delete (or set your browser to keep)the PCA cookie then you will be logged in when you enter the site.

Would it really make sense to have your email login set up as a favourite on someone else's PC? They could access your email at any time.

In any event, whether it is possible will depend on what email service / software you use to access your emails. So what do you use?

Batch: I do not know where you get the email bit from as David4637 has not asked for the email login but the PC Advisor login. I have been using this system for years now with no problem. I now find I cant use this system and I have started using the system that Fruit Bat has suggested and have had no problems so far.

David: if you login as normal then put the page into your favorites, you can then copy the link onto you desktop or anywhere else you want it, it should work that way.

It just means in the old system if you had logged out you would not have to add your login details again. I had the PCA webpage address then my email address and then the password all in the URL, and it worked for 3 years at least, just thought it would be useful to repeat this option on the new PCA system? Thanks for your replies Any more ideas David
