Logging in and email notification

I have just posted in a topic and a reply has come up on my email. My question is when I tried to go into the link I was asked to sign in. So I came out of my email and went into the forum through my Book mark and got straight into the forum. Is this going to happen everytime I get a notification because I cant remember my password so I will have to go and get my file on passwords and look it up. (Before the upgrade that never happened) Any answers!! I have just looked who is on tonight and there is something called a Google Bot and and MSM Bot what are these?

You just need to re-tick the log me on automatically box next time you logon to the forum.
The bot's are web-crawling search engine indexers, looking up and cataloguing KG pages into search engines.

I found I had to re login too when making a reply and as Peter said then tick the box to always log in. You can always change your password if you have forgotten it. I did.

Hi Catherine,
On the old forum it decided not to accept my correct password and Mr Potatohead (bless him and where is he now) gave me a password of symbols that I copied onto M/S Word because had I been asked for my password I have not got the foggiest idea how to replicate them.
Thankfully I had to phone Jason for something and as he was at his computer I asked him to restore my old password, which he did, and it has thankfully worked every time I have had to use it since.

Yes since we've moved to a new server, everyone will need to re-enter their password once - and as said earlier - click the Remember me - and you'll be back to normal.
We've not heard from Mr Potatohead for a while now, I suspect he's busy London-side someplace.
