While it is nice to be able to stay logged in, it is not very secure and that needs to be considered if anyone has access to your computer. I used to share my laptop with my kids, so I always had to log out. Now I have my own laptop, so I stayed logged in all the time and it is much easier.

I like that shortcut! Thanks Echoes.
Another way to do it, if you don't have a scroll mouse, in IE, in the bottom right corner, change the zoom level. (If you don't see that in the bottom right corner, in the View menu, select Toolbars and select Status Bar.
You can also change the zoom level in the View menu. Select the View level, and select Zoom.

The logging in issue sounds strange - especially that is happens 3x every time?
Sometimes my browser 'remembers' the password, so when I type the username and press [Tab], the password field is automatically populated and if I'm not paying attention I will type it in anyway, so it ends up being entered incorrectly.

I can see why there may be an issue with the first log in attempt, because of this or a typo, but you'd think on the second log in attempt it would be successful.
Does this issue occur with any other applications you use - like email or other websites?
