* For security issues - vbulletin.org will contact all members who have installed a modification whenever a security issue is brought to their attention.

He was on IE

I do not have those in my .htaccess

However...

When I was diagnosing something else (IE11 issues for another member)

I was missing this in my headerinclude template:
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=9" />

Which made the issue go away.

I also had "Add No-Cache Headers" set to "No" which I read could also be an issue with IE11 and some other issues with cookies so I turned that to "Yes"

The person with IE issues says their problem went away.

I am waiting for the e-mail person to come back on-line so I can test again with him and try and turn your mod back on.

Could those two settings account for what he experienced?

(I would love to be able to turn no-cache back to "No" for performance reasons, unless there is a viable reason to actually leave it to "yes")

You can try to turn no-cache back to "No" and see what happens.

If you want to test this out your self, you can set your users date back using this query:

UPDATE user SET ozzmodz_email_verify_date = 1385857944 WHERE userid = X

That will set it to over a year ago.

X is replaced by your userid, and if you are using table prefixes, remember to add it to the query.

[Gadget_Guy]

I will try that.

I am thinking it MAY be IE11 issues which that inclusion in the header fixed.

That was causing a lot of issues.

Did I ever tell you IE sucks.

[Gadget_Guy]

Preaching to the choir!

Yeah, it does... But too many users use it...

Yeah I know. It's a PITA to work with, you code or design something, it works in every browser, except IE.
