"Browse board with cookies?" problem

[Threshold]

I am experiencing a very weird problem with this one part of the "EDIT OPTIONS" template:

Browse board with cookies?
Clicking yes will use cookies to keep your id for this session. Clicking no will send it through the links. (Selecting no may cause problems when sharing links with people behind the same proxy as you)

At account creation, this defaultes to YES, as it should.

But whenever I open up my options (via the EDIT OPTIONS button), this is set to NO.

Even if I click the YES radio button and "submit modifications", if I reopen my OPTIONS it is back at NO.

Any idea why this would be happening?

In the modifyoptions template, the code has this which looks correct:

<tr>
 <td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><normalfont><b>Browse board with cookies?</b></normalfont><br>
 <smallfont>Clicking yes will use cookies to keep your id for this session. Clicking no will send it through the links. (Selecting no may cause problems when sharing links with people behind the same proxy as you)</smallfont></td>
 <td bgcolor="{secondaltcolor}"><normalfont>
  <input type="radio" name="nosessionhash" $nosessionhashchecked value="yes"> yes
  <input type="radio" name="nosessionhash" $nosessionhashnotchecked value="no"> no
 </normalfont></td>
</tr>

Thanks,

Did you add any codehacks to member.php?

[Steve Machol]

Did you moduify member.php or member2.php?

[Threshold]

No. I did not make any changes to those 2 files.

I have not made any hacks to my vBulletin whatsoever.

I have been avoiding any hacks because I do not want to
have to spend a lot of time implementing upgrades in the future.

Help!

This seems like a major bug or problem.

I know I did not hack my board in any way.

I have only changed things that you can change in the admin control panel.

Well if this were a bug, then I'm sure someone else would have brought it up by now. It's certainly not happening on any of my three vB forums.
