I appreciate your help, but I still see an error in your logic.... Here are the steps:

1. I created an account.

2. I logged into the account.

3. I physically logged out of the account i.e. I hit the "log out" button. I verified that I was logged out by noting obvious characteristics on the vbulletin template ("register now" for example).

4. I navigate to the above mention forum and next to each member is a "green" light saying they are "online now".

If the member is NOT logged into their account i.e. they are "not" online now ... then why is the green light still on..?

If I am missing something, please explain?
