Perhaps it's the "sudoku.com" in the address instead of "www.sudoku.com" that gives it the strange effect...

I'll post the link below, and also a version adding the "www.", and see if it makes any difference?

PS: Just checked it, the link without the "www." really gave me the impression that I was logged out, but when I went back to the original page containing the links and refreshed, I stayed logged in... So my guess is that the system in "http://sudoku.com" thought I wasn't logged in, while the system in "http://www.sudoku.com" thought I was...

I've just tried the two links udosuk posted and I get the same thing:
Clicking on "http://sudoku.com" and it says I have to login at the top of the page and clicking "http://www.sudoku.com" it states I've already logged in.
As to why, maybe someone will explain.

Because www.sudoku.com and sudoku.com don't use the same autologin cookie

Up until today I've been unable to login automatically even when I've deleted any cookies, but after a bit of delving if you:

Click on tools (top task bar) - Internet options - Click on Contents tab - Click on Settings in Autocomplete and select the box/boxes you want to use - Click OK twice.

On returning to this site I needed to input my username and password, select and click auto login but it seems to have done the trick

Edit.
Oh no it hasn't
On the day I was unable to log off, and on leaving the site and returning later I did not need to login, but these last two days I've had to login manually.
Back to the drawing-board.
