Thank you all for the comments. I have found the solution, I think.
Someone mentioned cookie settings, so I went to Temporary Internet Files and deleted my Pentax User cookie, logged in again and selected Remember me on this computer. Now I can close IE7, go back in and I am still logged in to PU. Wonderful!

I'm not silly, I click the "Remember me" box but it forgets me after a while!
I was assuming the time-out was a security thing, but maybe it's a bug that is only affecting some of us.

Pete,
as Terry noticed it might be the cookies problem. If you don't let store cookies (or they have short lifespan) - this may happen. I use Firefox.

I let IE store cookies and I get logged out of this forum when I am still logged into other websites. This proves that not all (if any) of my cookies have been deleted when I get logged out.
If it is a cookie problem, this particular cookie is prone to crumbling!

If you delete cookies when exiting IE, no login details will be retained on the computer.
To fix login problems for a particular site, delete this cookie manually, then log in as usual.

As long as I tick the "keep me logged in" box when I log in it seems to associate it with that one PC... until I log in on another PC. If I don't tick the box then I get logged off after around an hour - which, as you say, can be frustrating when checking the new posts.
