cogadh: Y'all need to do what trentonlf did. GOG had an issue about a month ago that was causing this problem, but they fixed it. However, whatever that issue was is still cached in your browser and is causing that weird partial logout. Delete the cookies, clear the cache and the problem SHOULD go away.
gooberking: I had one system that was doing it. Cache clearing didn't seem to fix it. What did appear to help (single case here) was actually logging off. Whatever state of being logged off you ended up in was weird (still on in forums I think)and signing back in just landed me back into the same state. The last time it happened I logged back in, then logged off properly. Hasn't been a problem since. I have no idea if it just happened to be about the time it got fixed or if that was an important part of it.
Deleting your cookies is the key step, just clearing the cache is not enough. Logging off sort of accomplishes the same thing, as it will re-set the cookie, but it doesn't seem to work for everyone.
