Login Problems, etc.
Just sent this to someone having trouble with pm's. If you have any trouble with the site with functionality that usually works, you can try the following:
1. For pm-related problems, delete all the pm’s in ALL your message trays: sent, out, etc. that you don’t need to keep. You may be pushing the limit size-wise.
2. Delete your cookies and re-login. I recommend this one a lot as it seems to solve a host of problems involving web sites.
If you only want to delete the Ozbow cookie, do this:
In Internet Explorer:
Open Tools/Internet Options
Click the Delete Files button
Click OK
Click Settings
Click View Files
You’ll see a long list of files called something like “Cookie:yourcomputername@ebay.com/â€Â
Find the one that has @www.ozbow.net in it.
Delete it!
Click OK
Click OK again and you’re done!
Now close all browser sessions and open one again. You’ll have to login again and the new cookie will be saved.
Hope this helps!

There is a chance that it is caused by the loss of the cookie from your temporary internet files folder and you are not reconised as being logged in.
To the best of my knowledge there have been no chnages to site controls. But will get a check done.

As a normal user it isn't asking me to log in each time.

Piggy... I am assuming you are ticking the little "Log me on automatically each time I visit" box when you sign in, and you are not clicking "Log Out" when you go to leave. If you are using Microsoft IE try having a look through your Tool / Internet Options and see if there is anything deleting cookies.
Are you running an Ad-Aware or other spyware application that is "cleaning out" the machine. Are you accessing via a office/work environment that doesn't allow cookies?
