Why can't I stay logged in?

I didn't use to have to log in every time I went into DU. Now--even though I always click "keep me logged in"--I have to log in again even if I've just been away for an hour. What's up with that?

Log back in and check the box to stay logged in. That should fix it.

Although I don't get logged out every time I leave DU, only occasionally. I've been on DU for years and this has never happened before. It just started within the past couple of months.
