Serious Question About Churchill Downs Website
 
I just went to their website and it showed that I was logged in as someone other then me, a comcast.net address. I don't use that service. So, I logged out and it went right back to that. Anyone else have that happen or do I need to take immediate action?

My thinking is this is a busy time for that site obviously, but, I have my own login and why would it automatically go to that?

fyi it only shows on the home page, as I click on the other tabs like entries, etc it shows guest and asks for login info.

just concerned is all.

I think this has to do with the way the website is stored and distributed during Derby Week because of the increased traffic. It happens on the Derby site also. Don't worry about it. It happens to everyone.

When I go to the site it says "welcome v_d_g" and that's not my log-in - it's the sites problem, not yours.

I'm on so many log-in sites that i use firefox now as my browser. It better at remembering passwords and log-ins than IE or Netscape. Try it if you haven't.

Same thing was happening to me and I thought somebody had hacked my system. I think they just revamped their webpage and, typically, SCREWED things up.

It might be a problem if anyone actually used REAL information when creating those profiles.:rolleyes:

You should clean that Firefox infection off your computer immediately.

Firefox lovers are pretty funny. They think they are pretty clever but have usually no idea what they are doing or saying.

for some reason the internet explorer still makes me type in at least the first few letters, so I love the automatic log-in function. Then again you described me to a tee so...

I experienced the same thing. Funny thing was that it was someone I know. That was creepy. Glad you all cleared this up.
