Ok,

I assume that the login information for sciforums is held in a cookie, so to delete cookies from the public computer click on tools(in internet explorer), then on internet options then delete cookies.

I haven't tested this so I can't guarantee it works, try it out.

Yes, a logoff link would be handy, haven't come across a forum with one yet.

Were you logged into sciforums when you done it? Did you have sciforums open in a web page in otherwords.

Sciforums used to have a log off button at the top right corner of the home page. It doesn't appear to be there any more.

So, you're screwed until it's ressolved.

Well, I can't believe I'm saying this Preacher_X but you make a good point. I use a personal computer so it doesn't matter to me but if you're on a public system I could see that being a real problem.
