I have a question.

Why is it that I'm always logged on automatically on CAA whenever I open the website on my browser?

I think I can answer it; a cookie is stored in your computer that says 'CAA approved - log in Mave'. Whenever CAA is opened it reads this cookie and you can come in without logging on.

If you ever want to disable this then there should be an option in your user control panel.

How to disable -- when you log on there's a box that says "remember me", simply uncheck the box and you will have to log into CAA next time you visit.

Or, if you're a tech-happy comp nerd like me, you can just go delete the cookie :) (do a file search in that folder for 'caa') But thats only if you want to do it the cool way :lol:
