I tried clicking into the Milebuzz thread, but hyperlink shows as: "http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/milesbuzz-370/.%20$uredir%20." which already seems a bit odd.

The error message I get is: "Page not found"

The same was happening for me last night and this morning: when I am trying to get to usercp.php page, it flashes some scrambled text (possibly php code), and then redirects to http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/.%20$uredir%20.
with "Page not found".
Attempts of going to /forum/ result in the same.
But I can get to http://www.flyertalk.com/
This happens in one browser (Slimjet in this case, but I don't think it matters), and only when I am logged in. If I go to http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/ in the "incognito" window, it works.
In a different browser (FF, Opera), it works even when I am logged in.

So, I assume it has something to do with cookies that the server started setting yesterday (or a day before yesterday). And those must be cookies responsible for the persistent login in FT.

So, I tried to delete all cookies that pertain to *flyertalk.com.
Apparently, that is not sufficient. It still doesn't work. But I see that the website still thinks I am logged in. So, there might be a cookie that is in a different domain. What is it?

Which cookie(s) is(are) responsible for the persistent login in flyertalk
besides those with flyertalk.com?
I'd like to delete it (them) to effectively "logout" and fix this in the browser I am using.
